'There is evidence to suggest that our world and everything in it - from snowflakes to maple trees to falling stars and spinning electrons - are only ghostly images, projections from a level of reality literally beyond both space and time.'

Nearly everyone is familiar with holograms?three-dimensional images projected into space with the aid of a laser. Two of the world's most eminent thinkers 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. University of London physicist David Bohm, a protégé of Einstein and one of the world's most respected quantum physicists, and Stanford neurophysiologist Karl Pribram, an architect of our modern understanding of the brain, have developed a remarkable new way of looking at the universe. Their theory explains not 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. Now featuring a foreword by Lynne McTaggart, Michael Talbot's The Holographic Universe is a landmark work whose exciting conclusions continue to be proven true by today's most advanced physics, cosmology, and string theory.

These essays examine the music of Venice in its last great period, spanning the period from the second half of the 17th century to the fall of the Republic in 1797. They cover institutions, personalities and composers and musicians.

Written from the perspective of a professional baroque flautist and recorder-player, this book aims to shed light on the array of sizes and tunings of the recorder and transverse flute families as they relate to Antonio Vivaldi's compositions. It also includes a discussion of the much-disputed chronology of Vivaldi's works.

An account of how quantum physics is putting forward ideas that confirm the perceived beliefs of mystics who think the world is an illusion
