The Holographic Universe Talbot, Michael
Talbot applies holographic theory based on the ideas of David Bohm, Karl Pribram, and quantum physics, to cosmology, psychology, and even psi phenomena, unorthodox healing, perceptions of past and future, and other seemingly miraculous occurrences and experiences. His idea is that "there is evidence to suggest that our world and everything in it from snowflakes to maple trees to falling stars and spinning electrons—are also only ghostly images, projections from a level of reality so beyond our own it is literally beyond both space and time" (p. 1). Although Talbot's ideas are interesting and provocative, he does not present any way to test his theory which, indeed, is so global that it probably cannot be subjected to verification.
