  - Terrific read! Do yourself a favor and read this book......you won't be disappointed. Whether you have a keen interest and understanding of physics or not this book will be appreciated and offers something for both. For those with a decent level of knowledge it will add a dimension of understanding and unique point of view that simply isn't provided almost anywhere else. For those with very little knowledge, the writing is extremely accessible and explains the science in terms that everyone can both understand and appreciate. And in relating the science to things like certain Eastern religions and other schools of human philosophical thought really helps to provide both context and a sense of "Wow!" and wonder regarding the nature of this universe we live in. I've read it a few times, and have recommended it to friends, business colleagues and my own children (ok - with my kids, it was sorta required reading in my house) and without exception, all have thanked me for putting them on to this little "treasure". I'll close the way I opened - Do yourself a favor and read this book... Rating: - A fusion of Eastern and Western Point of ViewsI found this book an enlightening attempt to bring together the Eastern and Western views of universe, ways of life, and philosophies. Having Eastern background, and being educated and lived primarily in the West I relate very well with the subject matter and found the work rather ground breaking, and in a constructive way a demonstration of the "one-bess' of the universe and universal thought. I strongly recommend this book. Rating:  - Interesting Yet TechnicalThis book was a challenging read as the author attempts to explain the basics of a very complex theories. I found myself struggling to understand the differences between quantum physics, particle theory, the theory of relativity and other aspects of physics. These theories have been discovered by some of the greatest thinkers of all time and thus not easy to understand. While this made for a challenging read, I did learn the importance of keeping an open mind and thus made the book worthwhile. Too often we allow a preconceived way of thinking to prevent further understanding. This is one of the underlying themes of the book and interestingly enough is how a lot of the breakthroughs in physics/quantum mechanics were discovered. The concepts can be applied to just about every aspect of learning. Despite the challenges, this book is worth reading for that reason alone. Rating: - Understanding the universe and how universe worksA excellent profile of how the universe and universal consciousness works. You must spread your wings and investigate these things. All this is happening, but you don't know that you don't know! An excellent primer on how "intention" works and how you can get it to work for you. You are not in the universe, the universe is in you. Rating: - A good book, prompt deliveryI read this book in the late 1970's, and after reading it, I felt I was walking on air for days. I just wanted to have it to reread and to share with my children. The book came quickly and was in good shape. Thanks, Gary |
