Quantum Millennium, Quantum Universe, Quantum Biosphere, Quantum Man - or What Physicists can teach Biologists, and Biology, Physics

p. 249-264

Résumé

It is shown in line with:- a) the likely implications of Deutsch's discovery of the universal quantum theory of computation, b) cited new evidence in quantum mechanics, and c) the quantum mechanical correspondence principle, that measurement, the basis of all experimental science and experience, as defined in John von Neumann's Mathematical Foundations of Quantum Mechanics:- 1) incorporates signal theory into quantum physics, 2) defining two inseparable kinds of signal, carried on "bits" and "waves" comprising symbolic and holographic information respectively, so as to turn quantum mechanics into a pattern recognition theory capable of explaining the undue effectiveness of mathematics in physics, so that without need of extension, it provides the likely basis of a quantum holographic adaptive cosmology including the basis of the information processing morphology and dynamics by which living systems might work. That is to say, it defines the basis not just for quantum cosmology, but for quantum biology, quantum neuroscience, quantum medicine, etc, within which are included the currently established classical understandings.
