Description

In the letters contained in this book, David Bohm argues that the dominant formal, mathematical approach in physics is seriously flawed. In the 1950s and 60s, Bohm took a direction unheard of for a professor of theoretical physics: while still researching in physics, working among others with Yakir Aharanov and later Jeffrey Bub, he also spent time studying �metaphysics��such as Hegel�s dialectics and Indian panpsychism. 50 years on, questions raised about the direction and philosophical assumptions of theoretical physics show that Bohm�s arguments still have contemporary relevance.Typham this is the title: David Bohm’s Critique of Modern Physics Letters to Jeffrey Bub, 1966-1969 1st Edition
