...Bohm showed that Einstein was partly right in that Bohr's view was incomplete. One must keep both the particles and force fields of the old physics in addition to the new quantum wave function. Contrary to Bohr, we can picture the motion of particles in space at the quantum level , but there is a new kind of quantum force in addition to the classical forces of electromagnetism, gravity and even the strong and weak forces of modern high energy physics.
This new quantum force or "connection" is like The Force in George Lucas's Star Wars. Unlike ordinary forces the quantum force does not get weaker as the distance between quantum-connected particles increases. It is very private in that it connects specific particles. Although the quantum force can be disrupted, it cannot be shielded. Furthermore, the quantum force depends on a wholistic pattern of information that is literally beyond space and time which can be described as "organic" or "mental". Finally, Bohm showed that our modern quantum technology found in our computers can be explained on the basis of an approximation in which the quantum force guides its particles, but its particles do not directly back-react on their own quantum force. In other words, the quantum force is the "unmoved mover" which changes matter but is not changed by matter. Indeed, the quantum force violates Newton's idea that for every action there must be a reaction. This is the key idea of Bohm's theory which cannot even be formulated in Bohr's theory.
