Most people believe that physicists are explaining the world. This book deals not with knowledge, which is always past tense anyway, but with imagination, which is physics come alive, which is Wu Li.

Surprisingly clear and easy to read, The Dancing Wu Li Masters explains that the Wu Li Master dances with his student. It means “Patterns of Organic Energy,” but it also means “Nonsense,” “My Way,” “I Clutch My Ideas,” and “Enlightenment.” These enchanting ideas form the framework through which Zukav weaves his exploration of quantum mechanics and relativity theory. The much-loved classic introduction to quantum physics is written for students with no mathematical or technical background.
