David Bohm was one of the foremost scientific thinkers and philosophers of our time. Although deeply influenced by Einstein, he was also, more unusually for a scientist, inspired by mysticism. Indeed, in the 1970s and 1980s he made contact with both J. Krishnamurti and the Dalai Lama whose teachings helped shape his work. In both science and philosophy, Bohm's main concern was with understanding the nature of reality in general and of consciousness in particular. In this classic work he develops a theory of quantum physics which treats the totality of existence as an unbroken whole. Writing clearly and without technical jargon, he makes complex ideas accessible to anyone interested in the nature of reality.

Soft cover. Condition: Good +. Book internally in excellent condition apart from a few marks from previous owner in first few pages (in biro). Cover looks well-worn. A classic text which crosses the boundaries of physics with philosophy - the author puts forward a rational and scientific theory which explains cosmology and the nature of reality, as we observe it, in a way that does not fragment the latter from consciousness, as we experience it. Written clearly and without the use of scientific or technical jargon. Of particular relevance to all those interested in physics, philosophy, psychology and research into the connection between consciousness and matter. Seller Inventory # 003398
