| 要約: | This fine book could probably only have been written by David Gosling, who combines an advanced education in physics (including research experience, if of some vintage) with a substantial knowledge of Indian religious traditions resulting from a life-time of research and teaching in religious studies, and considerable experience in India and South-East Asia. The publishers have packed a lot of print on to the 186 pages of what used to be called a "slim volume", so that in reality it is a bigger book than meets the eye. Be prepared for substantial chapters on a number of intertwined topics, but be prepared also to enjoy this most instructive account of a complex encounter between civilisations and thought-worlds. Somehow Gosling also manages to tell us where physics in general has got to, in a manner which seems rather understandable to the nonexpert in that field. |
