About This Item
London: Routledge & Kegan Paul, 1980. 1st Edition . Hardcover. Near Fine/Very Good Plus. 8vo - over 7¾ - 9¾" tall. Fine book, but for owner's signature on FFEP, in a better-than-Very Good jacket which is price-clipped and somewhat spine-sunned, else would also be Fine. London: Routledge & Kegan Paul, 1980. First Correction (1980) of the First Edition. Octavo, xv + 224 pp., purple boards with silver spine imprinting, Purple dustjacket with circle design. Immaculate except as noted above. See all scans. This is the second version of the first edition, bearing 1980 corrections (see scan of copyright page). Celebrated quantum physicist David Bohm's relatively concise offering of his notions regarding the implicate and explicate orders of reality - that the apparent specificness of qualities such as location, and the perceived separateness of things (whether particles or people), that being the explicate order, may in fact be only a semi-autonomous, and certainly temporary, reflection of a greater, underlying, undivided whole (the implicate order). Bohm's thinking in this regard is part of what has led to a variety of hypotheses about the universe, as perceived by us, being "holographic". L14n
