The Conscious Universe: Part and Whole in Modern Physical Theory
Editorial Reviews
Book Description
The authors show that a generalized principle of complementarity is pervasive not only in physical theories such as cosmological models of the universe, but also in the construction of all human realities. They suggest that consciousness can no longer be divorced from the problem of the way science opeates. The book concludes by making the case that this entails a new way of understanding the universe that could obviate much of the current conflict between science and religion while providing at the same time a basis for valuation that is better suited for coordinating all human experience.
Book Info
Explores the implications for physics and philosophy of a strange new fact of nature: that particles can be entangled over enormous distances and that measurements made on such entangled particles in one place can have an instantaneous effect in another.
