A particle physicist makes the scientific case for an ancient idea about the nature of the universe: that all is One. Heinrich Päs aims to show how monism could inspire physics today.

What The Reviewers Say

Andrew Crumey,
The Wall Street Journal
A heady mix of history, philosophy and cutting-edge theory that is fascinating, provocative and at times infuriating.

Kirkus
Serious explanations of quantum physics require close attention, so most readers will breathe a sigh of relief when Päs switches gears to deliver a history of science and religion in Western culture.

Publishers Weekly
... overly knotty.
