Drawing on the many uncanny analogies between quantum reality and the dynamics of self and society, Zohar and Marshall argue that we can change our social perceptions, values and behaviour by drawing our deepest images and metaphors from the nature of the mind and the wider nature of the physical universe ...

"This was an assigned text in my philosophy of teaching class at WWU. I wish I could remember the name of that professor; he was one of two outstanding faculty I encountered there. Anyway, this was an interesting metaphor for society. I know that physicists have complained about books like this, about extending physics concepts to other areas, but they just have to understand that the human mind works in metaphors. When we get a new one, we apply that tool to everything to see what it fits, to see how we can turn that screw. I found this book useful. Essentially, what I got out of this is that the pattern is always changing, so any system must be built to change with the pattern if it is to endure."
