This book was first published in 1939. It was written by Gerald Heard, a then well-known British polymath and science commentator for the BBC. In later years he was a regular lecturer at the Vedanta Society of Southern California.
What's noteworthy about this book is that it influenced a generation of leading thinkers from the scientific world view to the perspective of the mystic. The list of thinkers includes Aldous Huxley and Huston Smith. H.G.Wells said that Gerald Heard was the only person he was willing to listen to on the "wireless." The book was even actor James Dean's favorite book.
