5.0 out of 5 stars A wonderful survey of holographic theory of consciousness, August 22, 1999
A truly diverse and informational work, including essays from such important theorists as physicist Bohm and neuroscientist Pribram. About the holographic theory of consciousness: just as a small portion of a hologram will display the characteristics of the whole image, so does individual human consciousness contain information about the "whole" Kosmos (this is actually known as the holomovement, because consciousness isn't like a diagram on a 2D surface as in holo"gram", but more closely resembles a continuous stream/flow of holographic frequencies). Bohm gives excellent explanations of implicate order(the "enfolded" spaceless, timeless "dimension" of extremely subtle frequency that gives rise to all manifestation) vs. explicate order (the "unfolded" reality of form that we experience), challenges popularly accepted theories of localized brain organization (our brains work more like holograms/movements, with each cell/particle storing info about the whole), and addresses the importance of the actual practice of meditation/inner transcendance as a means of inducing world transformation. Extremely useful for becoming acquainted with various scientists/theorists in consciousness studies. Also interesting to see how the various views, after more than 20 yrs. are currently applied in Wilber's own philosophy. Very highly recommended!

5.0 out of 5 stars Tantalizing Resonance!, March 6, 2002
By A Customer
With the world falling to pieces like Twin Towers, these words of resonance, that unite the sciences and supercede seperatist tendancies, offer thinking minds HOPE!

The quantum field necessitates the observor for creating reality, and the thinkers whose words are published in this book are describing the source of reality in modern terms that verify ancient wisdom. The brains functioning in neurotransmitting peptides and frequencies connects us to the underlying source of those frequenceis. The descriptions of the holograph's capacity to have each part contain the whole, and the brains own holographic functioning, lends credence to the "collective unconscious" that Jung introduced. The delineation of ideas and their evolution, by many great minds through the centuries, is informative and inspiring.

From the brain neurosurgeon Karl Pribram to the quantum physist Itzhak Bentov, truth is presented. The contemporary philosopher, Ken Wilber, has compiled a rare and exquisite collection of information that connects all branches of current research in human consciousness.
