He was a remarkable man.
Once again David Bohm, one of the most original of thinkers, has demonstrated his ability to make original and fascinating discoveries in regard to, let us say, life in general. This is a combination of physics, biology, philosophy etc etc or as it used to be called natural philosophy. Bohm was one of this century's last remaining natural philospohers in a time of specialisation, in some ways ...

The "real" way to think about wholeness
The fragmented muddle that Quantum Physics has made of "the way we used to view the world," is at last confronted "head on" in this densely packed but short monogram. It is not an easy ride, but this, one of Einstein's last and most famous students, takes it on with the zeal and the relish of a young boy. Here, Dr. Bohm attempts to answer some of the most perplexing philosophical questions to ...

A Crystal-Clear Gem of a Book-- Lucid and Insightful
Don't let the original 1950's publication date fool you. This book is as relevant and important today as it was when it was first published. In fact, Bohm's lucid, pointed three-page preface-- in which he outlines in simple English the three exact ways Quantum Mechanics differs from Classical Mechanics (which I had never seen done before and which few physics students ever really grasp)-- that ...

David Bohm and philosophy of physics
This book is a bold and original investigation of the philosophical foundations of physical science. David Bohm, as a superb physicist with a major textbook on quantum mechanics, is qualified for what he undertakes to do in this book. The book is devoted partly to a detailed exposition of "mechanical philosophy". Bohm describes in detail the sources and implications of this philosophy as it ...

Seeing Krishnamurti
This cassette helps clarify K's teachings as to holistic attention being the energetic connection between universal mind and the particular brain. K explains how it is that the pure energy of mind can enter into matter and wipe away the impressions formed from conditioning. The brain being silent through pure understanding can act as an instrument for that compassion and intelligence that is ...

Bohm and servant-leadership
David Bohm (1996), wrote about proprioception, which is the basically the self-awareness that allows us to realize that our bodies our wired to know when we move them versus being moved by something else. In other words, we know when we have moved our arm or when someone else has moved it. Not so with thoughts and emotions, he said: "You may get a feeling that you don't like from a thought, ...

Great book and introduction of K'teachings by David Bohm
According to Troxell and Snyder Krishnamurti is leading philosophers away from reliance on abstract thought to greater concern for a direct awareness of ourselves in the world....and together with David Bohm in these further dialogs, the result is of extraordinary importance, which is affecting all thinking areas.

First-class professional exposition plus deep philosophy
This is a review of the edition of 1965 which appeared in Russian (1967) in my translation. The book contains a thorough exposition of Einstein's special relativity, with a discussion of historical, philosophical and psychological issues. David Bohm's clear and professional style, as well as many deep and original ideas make this book an outstanding course of this important chapter of ...

Bohm With His Usual Brilliance
Up front, I believe David Bohm was one of the most outstanding thinkers of the 20th century, if not the whole of human existence. Like removing the layers of an onion, he peels away the often faulty assumptions we all live with and quickly gets to the heart of the matter. WHY and HOW we think the way we do are indeed more vital to understand than WHAT we think. Rational thought and creativity ...

Death Has Very Little Meaning.....
The reviewer preceding me is questioning the contradiction he senses on reading this fine dialogue contained in this book between the scientist Bohm and philosopher Krishnamurti on the nature of ending conflict. Indeed It is hard to get deeper than this dialogue.. The impossibility of loosing one's ego is discussed within, as well as humanity's construction of reality with both the negative and ...

An alternative to the Copenhagen Interpretation
The authors present a different interpretation of quantum mechanics to the orthodox Copenhagen intepretation. For the serious student of quantum mechanics interested in looking at the field from a fresh perspective, Bohm and Hiley's interpretation is very interesting. Bohm is one of the great physicists of the 20th century who understood quantum mechanics as well as anyone. His 1951 ...

Unfolding Meaning

Origami for idea lovers?
This gentle and delightful book is an edited transcript of a weekend seminar where David Bohm was joined by a group of open-minded souls to have a true dialogue about the nature or meaning and how we might explore it. The result is an engaging and challenging dance of ideas that describe and unfold a little of the origami of unknowable complexity that is Bohm's implicate order world view. It's a ...
