I lived in England then, and I visited him several times in Munich and showed him the whole manuscript chapter by chapter.
I had several discussions with Heisenberg. (p. 12, 4th ed.)Ĭapra later discussed his ideas with Werner Heisenberg in 1972, as he mentioned in the following interview excerpt: But man needs both.”Īccording to the preface of the first edition, reprinted in subsequent editions, Capra struggled to reconcile theoretical physics and Eastern mysticism and was at first "helped on my way by 'power plants'" or psychedelics, with the first experience "so overwhelming that I burst into tears, at the same time, not unlike Castaneda, pouring out my impressions to a piece of paper". Capra summarized his motivation for writing the book: “Science does not need mysticism and mysticism does not need science. A bestseller in the United States, it has been translated into 23 languages. The Tao of Physics: An Exploration of the Parallels Between Modern Physics and Eastern Mysticism is a 1975 book by physicist Fritjof Capra.
