  David Bohm
Bohm was born in 1917 at Wiles-Barre, Pennsylvania[?].
Bohm's colleagues sought to have his position at Princeton reinstated, and Einstein reportedly wanted Bohm to serve as his assistant, but Bohm's contract with the university was not renewed.
Bohm made a number of significant contributions to physics, particularly in the area of quantum mechanics and relativity theory.

 David Bohm - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
David Joseph Bohm (born December 20, 1917 in Wilkes-Barre, Pennsylvania, died October 27, 1992 in London) was an American-born quantum physicist, who made significant contributions in the fields of theoretical physics, philosophy and neuropsychology, and to the Manhattan Project.
Bohm also made significant theoretical contributions to neuropsychology and the development of the holonomic model [2] of the functioning of the brain.
Bohm showed a deep concern for humankind and life in general, and was alarmed by what he considered an increasing imbalance of not only 'man' and nature, but among peoples, as well as people, themselves.

 David Bohm
Bohm’s challenge to the conventional understanding of quantum theory has led scientists to re-examine what it is they are doing and to question the nature of their theories and their scientific methodology.
Bohm was a member of the Royal Academy, the originator of the causal interpretation of quantum theory, and the author of a famous text on quantum mechanics and of numerous articles and other books.
Bohm envisioned a transformation for those who grasped quantum mechanics in depth: a world of interconnection and interdependence, of direct and instantaneous communication, in which we have learned to harness the energies of compassion.

Bohm was born in Wilkes-Barre, Pennsylvania, in 1917.
Bohm's disenchantment with Soviet Communism did not come until 1956 when Nikita Krushchev delivered his blistering attack on Stalin, and the magnitude of Stalin's purges and the slave labor camps became widely known.
In Bohm's case it was a bounce toward Buddhism and Hinduism, and the teachings of Krishnamurti.

 The Blackwinged Night - F. David Peat
David Joseph Bohm was born on December 20, 1917, in the Pennsylvania mining town of Wilkes-Barre.
Bohm was known for the clarity in his explanations, for seeking illuminating metaphors and attempting to explain the most abstruse points in a direct and simple way.
Bohm also learned algebra, which he found less exciting than geometry, although he was stimulated by the way that mysterious "x" in an algebraic equation could stand for anything at all.

Bohm’s proposals have at times been 'dismissed' either largely or entirely on the basis of the basis of the very tenets that he challenged, without due consideration necessarily given to the inherent challenges.
Bohm maintained that relativity and quantum theory are in basic contradiction in these essential respects, and that a new notion of order should begin with that which both point toward: undivided wholeness.
Bohm may have known that his idea is a striking analogy to "intensional and extensional aboutness" to which R. Fairthorne (1969) insightfully referred information scientists (although a Google search reveals that few paid attention to this suggestion).

 TT: martin gardner on david bohm and krishnamurti
As Bohm's friend and collaborator David Peat tells it in his biography of Bohm, Infinite Potential (1997), young Krishnamurti actually believed for a time that he was indeed the incarnation of Lord Maitveya, and the true successor to Jesus.
Bohm also flirted with panpsychism, the belief that all matter is in some sense alive with low levels of consciousness.
Bohm's Eastern metaphysics, even though it helped shape his interpretation of quantum mechanics, should not be held against the potential fruitfulness of his pilot wave theory.

In 1959 he and his student Yakir Aharanov discovered the Aharanov-Bohm effect, showing that the motions of charged particles can be affected by magnetic fields even if they never enter the regions to which those fields are confined.
Bohm left the USA 1951 after an accusation of un-American activities during the McCarthy era made it impossible for him to find university employment.
Later in life Bohm developed an interest in philosophy and wrote several books on physics, philosophy, and the nature of consciousness.

Bohm sought out Krishnamurti and the two became close, participating in regular conversations and dialogues of inquiry over the years.
Bohm was certainly investigating these "new ways," and we'll explore more of his ideas in another entry.

 David Bohm (WebSeitz/wikilog)
However, he was unsatisified with the orthodox approach to [Quantum Theory] (Quantum Physics) and began to develop his own approach ([Bohm Interpretation]), a non-local hidden variable deterministic theory whose predictions are in perfect agreement with the quantum ones.
His work and the [EPR] argument were the major factor motivating [John Bell]'s inequality, whose consequences are still being investigated.
In his later years, Bohm developed the technique of Dia Logue, in which equal status and "free space" were the most important prerequisites.
