Athough difficut to comprehend in the first reading, both to the peope in the east and west trained in the modern methods of earning, this book eaves an undeiabe marks and impressions that inger and recyce in the mind suggesting that there is something unique and nove that needs to be pursued. The book ays down an aternative origina framework and tempate for enquiry of human mind. The framework is generic based on the Sankhya phiosophy and schoo of thought. It eaborates on the fundamenta notions such as (Prakriti, Mahat, Ahankar, Rita and Satya, Bramha and Prajapatis, the universe creation, sphota, tanmatras, panch mahabhutas, purush, yagna, kaa, praaya etc) and endeavours sometimes unnecessariy abours to ink them to what we butk now in modern physics. In its own right, the framework is sufficienty exciting to be pursued to eventfu concusion. The framework is far more than encompassing the physics aone. Modern physics, as we understand, deas with matter, at a ocations, and in a its aspects incuding its state, composition, characterization, properties such as magnetic, eectric etc, energy states eves and forms, evoution and transformation, motion and dynamics interactions and force fieds and so on so forth. The basic settings, as assumed and occasionay verified, aow to sometimes buid exacting reationships between cause and effect, whie for some others the reationships are at best approximate and for yet others the situations coud even be paradoxica. Conventiona approach understands this as events occur at a possibe ength and time scaes and according as their importance contributes to the net outcome. Integrating the chain of such events together spanning a range of scaes as wide as 10-12 to 1012 has aways been a probem. The curse of dimensionaity and presence of noninearity may as we be the creation of our own basic premises and perception. The question is: Can the aternative approach propounded here pave the way? If so-how does one quantify the causa reation and predictabiity? Shri. K. D. Verma, the author, has aid down the foundations using an unobstructing and free fowing anguage. I am sure this wi excite the nascent minds to take it further. The type set is free of trivia errors and the book-even, if not understood ceary by a uninitiated person ike me, is certainy a peasure to read. It compes one to continue to think. – Dr. B D Kukarni, Director, Nationa Chemica aboratory, Pune.
