I liked the movie too. I read Capra many years ago back near when it was released (OMG I'm old!, actually, I was only 2), along with the Dancing Wu-li Masters by Zukav (or something like that) (as well as the Crack in the Cosmic Egg, which doesn't have much to do with this topic we are discussing). I have been told that the Holographic Universe is a good one along spiritual/science lines. A review can be found on http://quanta-gaia.org/reviews/books/holoUniverse.html. I recently read the Physics of Consciousness which was interesting.
I'm sure it all has input to understanding a philosophy of Quality, but there is way too much out there that is interesting, and I could find some connection with endless stuff. In Science, I have found, each answer creates two questions, (as Pirsig also states in ZAMM), I don't think this finding is limited to science. I'm rereading Lila, to try to get some boundaries, otherwise I'll be working on understanding Quality forever. By understanding, I simply mean getting a level of comfort where I can live my life, for a while, according to its principles. That's kind of how I delve into theses metaphysical things, its got to have some day to day use.
