Description
What did the creators of the ancient "Yijing" (Book of Changes) think about the relations between the mind and the universe? Was their understanding more in line with a clockwork type of Newtonian universe or a holistic quantum universe? In this book, we explore the connections between modern quantum science and the ancient Yijing. The Yijing is a classic text that elucidates the profound principles of humans and their relation to the universe, and forms the foundation of Chinese traditional thought. Quantum science brings us to the dawn of a new era of science and technology and provides a key to unlocking the mysteries of the universe. We show how the principles of quantum theory were also contemplated in some ways by the creators of the Yijing. In short, there seems to be some quantum theory hidden inside the Yijing.
