Fritjof Capra, scientist, educator, activist, and accomplished
author, presents the evolution of his thought over five decades in
Patterns of Connection. First introduced in the late 1950s to the
work of Werner Heisenberg, a founder of quantum mechanics, Capra
quickly intuited the connections between the discoveries of quantum
physics and the traditions of Eastern philosophy--resulting in his
first book, the bestselling The Tao of Physics. This synthesis,
representative of the change from the mechanistic worldview of
Descartes and Newton to a systemic, ecological one, went on to
inform Capra's thinking about the life sciences, ecology, and
environmental policy. Today Fritjof Capra remains a major figure at
the crossroads of physics, spirituality, environmentalism, and
systems theory. Organized thematically and chronologically, the
essays in Patterns of Connection document the revolutionary and
far-reaching intellectual journey of one of the major public
thinkers of the last half-century.
