Today nearly everyone is familiar with holograms, three-dimensional images projected into space with the aid of a laser. Now, two of the world's most eminent thinkers -- University of London physicists David Bohm, a former protege of Einstein's and one of the world's most respected quantum physicists, and Stanford neurophysiologist Karl Pribram, one of the architects of our modern understanding of the brain -- believe that the universe itself may be a giant hologram, quite literally a kind of image or construct created, at least in part, by the human mind. This remarkable new way of looking at the universe explains now only many of the unsolved puzzles of physics, but also such mysterious occurrences as telepathy, out-of-body and near death experiences, "lucid" dreams, and even religious and mystical experiences such as feelings of cosmic unity and miraculous healings.

"This book covers a lot of ground and is based on the research of distinguished physicist David Bohm and Stanford Neurophysiologist Karl Pribram. It is pretty deep and took a while for me to read because I always looked at the bibliography for the books and research articles referenced in the text. Surprisingly, the incredible results of experiments were published in peer reviewed journals. Also, the author was quick to point out that Bohm and Pribram did not necessarily agree with some of the conclusions reached in the book. That said, I found the concept of consciousness, reality and the universe being intertwined to be mind bending. "
