Reviews

Margaret Wheatley puts her own spin on the Golden Rule by borrowing metaphors from quantum physics, chaos theory and fractal geometry. She argues for the interconnectedness and continuity of nature and, hence, for the impact of our most trivial actions as human beings and leaders. The author reads with clarity and a flair for drama. Complex ideas are presented with the surprise and humor of the physicists who first uncovered them. These tapes are recommended for a concise, but comprehensive, overview of the thinking behind recent science and its implications on our quotidian affairs. J.W. (c)AudioFile, Portland, Maine
