Read both. Made me wonder about the quantum & Bohmian mechanics?

I read "The Tao of Physics" when if first came out and thought it was mediocre at best. At the time it was my opinion that all forms of mysticism was 100% bullshit, but not long after that I read Raymond Smullyan's book "The Tao is silent". Smullyan's book covers many of the same topics as Capra's but does a incomparably better job. https://www.amazon.com/Tao-Silent-Raymond-M-Smullyan/dp/0060674695 I read a lot of books but even today I'd have to say "The Tao of Physics" is one of the 2 or 3 best books I ever read. I still think mysticism is mostly bullshit but after reading Smullyan's book I had a little less confidence in my 100% figure, it may have been a little too high.
