Wholeness and the Implicate Order is a book by theoretical physicist David Bohm. It was originally published in 1980 by Routledge, United Kingdom.

Contents

The book is considered a basic reference for Bohm's concepts of undivided wholeness and of implicate and explicate orders, as well as of Bohm's rheomode—an experimental language based on verbs. The book is cited, for example, by philosopher Steven M. Rosen in his book The Self-evolving Cosmos, [1] by mathematician and theologian Kevin J. Sharpe in his book David Bohm's World, [2] [3] by theologian Joseph P. Farrell in Babylon's Banksters, [4] and by theologian John C. Polkinghorne in his book One World. [5]
