David Ash's subject matter in this book is, I feel, perfectly contemporary for the time in which we are living, especially as we approach 2012. He writes about the quantum world and how it has revolutionised thought ever since it was discovered. He says modern (Western) society is caught in an illusion of materialism, which has its roots in ancient Rome and Greece. David is heavily influenced by Hinduism and Eastern mysticism in his writing, and bases his argument on the worldview: 'There is motion, but there are ultimately no objects; there is activity, but there are no actors; there are no dancers, there is only the dance.'
