In "The Undivided Universe", David Bohm, one of the foremost
scientific thinkers of the day and one of the most distinguished
physicists of his generation presents a totally new approach to
quantum theory. With Basil Hiley, his co-author, an interpretation
of quantum theory is developed which gives a clear intuitive
understanding of its meaning and in which there is a coherent
notion of the reality of the universe without assuming a
fundamental role for the human observer. With the aid of new
concepts such as active information and non-locality they provide a
comprehensive account of all the basic features of quantum theory,
including the relativistic domain and quantum field theory. They
contrast the new approach with other commonly accepted
interpretations and show that paradoxical or unsatisfactory
features of the other interpretations, such as the wave-particle
duality, do not arise. Finally, on the basis of the new
interpretation the authors make suggestions that go beyond current
quantum theory and they indicate areas in which quantum theory may
be expected to break down in a way that will allow for a test. This
book should be of interest to postgraduates and academics of phi
