Werner Heisenberg foundation of the matrix formulation of quantum mechanics through only the use of observables. In February 1943, Heisenberg was appointed to the Chair for Theoretical Physics at the "Friedrich-Wilhelms-Universität" (today, the Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin). In April, his election to the "Preußische Akademie der Wissenschaften" (Prussian Academy of Sciences) was approved. That same month, he moved his family to their retreat in as Allied bombing increased in Berlin. In the summer, he dispatched the first of his staff at the "Kaiser-Wilhelm Institut für Physik" to Hechingen and its neighboring town of Haigerloch, on the edge of the Black Forest, for the
The Tao of Physics a whole culture that subscribed to very similar ideas. Heisenberg said that this was a great help for him. Niels Bohr had a similar experience when he went to China. As a result of those influences, Bohr adopted the yin yang symbol as part of his family coat of arms when he was knighted in 1947. "The Tao of Physics" was followed by other books of the same genre like "The Hidden Connection", "The Turning Point" and "The Web of Life" in which Capra extended the argument of how Eastern mysticism and scientific findings of today relate, and how Eastern
