This "holographic" aspect of memory has been assumed to be of central importance by such thinkers as David Bohm and Karl Pri-bram. But it was Dennis and I who went so far as to suggest that this form of organization could be extended beyond the brain to include the cosmos at large. 

On the Pharmako/Poeia mandala, I put the little leaves on the path between phantastica and inebriantia, and name itexistentia. By existentia, I do not mean anything Cartesian, nor even David Bohm s separate-from-self implicate order, but mean that which precedes essence. 

As is well known, de Broglie abandoned his attempts at a realistic account of quantum phenomena for many years until David Bohm s discovery of a solution of Schrodinger s equation that lends itself to an interpretation involving a physical particle traveling under the influence of a so-called quantum potential. 

In 1952 David Bohm rediscovered aspects of earlier proposals by de Broglie and Madelung, which had been rejected years before, and established the concept of non-local interaction via the quantum potential. It appears to provide fundamental answers for the understanding of chemistry, but remains on the fringes, while awaiting recognition by the establishment. 

David Bohm gave new direction to Madelung s proposal by using the decomposition of the wave equation for a radically new interpretation of quantum theory. He emphasized the similarity between the Madelung and Hamilton-Jacobi equations of motion, the only difference between them being the quantum potential energy term,... 

QUANTUM THEORY, David Bohm. This advanced undergraduate-level text presents the quantum theory in terms of qualitative and imaginative concepts, followed by specific applications worked out in mathematical detail. Preface. Index. 655pp. 5Xx8X. 65969-0 Pa. 10.95... 

As a cultural activity this harsh discipline of quantum physics has been a failure. The layman continues to ask about the meaning of things and an occasional heretic, such as David Bohm [60], keeps the idea of an intelligible quantum reality alive. The quest for an electronic structure must be conducted in this spirit one can scarcely expect a discipline based on the electron as a zero-dimensional point to reveal its structure. However, despite Dirac s initial neglect of dimensional properties, he found a finite classical... 

In Chap. 23 of Ref. [152], Dr. David Bohm expresses the viewpoint that classical mechanics should be considered in its own right and as prerequisite for quantum mechanics, rather than as a limiting case of quantum mechanics. This is opposed to the more generally accepted viewpoint that classical mechanics should be considered as a limiting case of quantum mechanics. Moreover, even Dr. David Bohm expresses the latter viewpoint in his own recognition of the Universe as ultimately quantum-mechanical, in Chap. 8 (especially Sects. 8.22-8.23) and Chap. 22 (especially Sects. 22.2-22.3) of Ref. [152]. But, in any case, this is apart from Dr. David Bohm s partial anticipation of certain aspects of decoherence, or more correctly delocalization of coherence, in Sect. 6.12 and Chap. 22 (especially Sects. 22.11-22.12) of Ref. [152]. 

Quantum Theory by David Bohm, Prentice-Hall, Inc., Englewood Cliffs New Jersey, 1951. Bohm s book brings both clarity and completeness to many of the features of quantum mechanics that are of importance for the work carried out in the present book. 

In J. J. Thomson (Ed.), James Clerk Maxwell A Commemorative Volume 1831-1931, Cambridge Univ., 1931, Einstein said I incline to the belief that the physicists will. .. be brought back to the programme which may suitably be called Maxwell s the description of Physical Reality by fields which satisfy without singularity a set of Partial differential equations.

All this, despite his rejection of non-local quantum correlations and of David Bohm s recognition of the quantum potential. 

On reinterpretation it was pointed out by David Bohm that equation (4.25) differed from the classical Hamilton-Jacobi equation only in the term... 

Kim rightly recognizes the need to argue that even if matter is infinitely divisible, causal powers do not drain away. He points to David Bohm s observation that each time we descend to a lower microlevel, we do so because the current level is not causally closed ( explanatorily complete may be a better term in this context) that is, because... 

Two BBC journalists interviewed eight outstanding physicists Alain Aspect (photon experiments). John Bell (BeU inequahties), John Wheeler (Fejfnman s Ph.D. supervisor), Rudolf Peierls ( Peierls metal-semiconductor transition ), John Taylor ( black holes ), David Bohm ( hidden parameters ), and Basil Urley ( mathematical foundations of quantum physics ). It is most striking that all these physicists give very different theoretical interpretations of quantum mechanics (summarized in Chapter 1). 

This news should be strictly confidential in penitentiary departments. This phenomenon was described first by David Bohm, Quantum Theory, Prentice-Hall, New York (1951).
