Fritjof Capra: Patterns of Connection

Join us for a virtual conversation with Fritjof Capra to discuss the evolution of his thought. In the late 1950s Capra read the work of Werner Heisenberg, a founder of quantum mechanics, and quickly intuited connections between the discoveries of quantum physics and the traditions of Eastern philosophy. The result was his bestselling book, The Tao of Physics. His synthesis, which dispensed with the mechanistic worldview of Descartes and Newton in favor of a systemic, ecological one, has provided him with a different perspective on the life sciences, ecology and environmental policy.

Six decades later, Fritjof Capra remains at the crossroads of physics, spirituality, environmentalism and systems theory. Organized thematically and chronologically, the essays in Patterns of Connection document his revolutionary and far-reaching intellectual journey.

Black communities have a long, complex relationship with American soil, marked by systemic racism and dispossession. This history directly connects to current "food apartheid" and the rise of the Black farming movement, worker cooperatives, and sustainable practices aimed at ensuring healthy, local food access for all.

The San Francisco Foundation and The Commonwealth Club of California hosted a discussion on November 8, 2021, exploring these critical issues. Doria Robinson, Executive Director of Urban Tilth, and Andrea Talley, Worker-Owner of Mandela Grocery Cooperative, shared insights. Noted author Natalie Baszile moderated the conversation.

Pro-athletes are entertainers, and their definition of health differs from the average person's. Our bodies constantly expend significant energy just to function; for instance, about 1,400 calories daily are used simply to keep us alive. This inherent energy cost, a legacy from ancestors who conserved energy for survival, explains our natural tendency to avoid unnecessary physical activity, even with modern access to food.

This insight comes from Daniel Lieberman, Edwin M. Lerner II Professor of Biological Sciences at Harvard University. For more, subscribe to Big Think on YouTube or read the video transcript.
