Michael Coleman Talbot (September 29, 1953 – May 27, 1992) was an American author of fiction and non-fiction. He wrote several books highlighting parallels between ancient mysticism and quantum mechanics, and espousing a theoretical model of reality that suggests the physical universe is akin to a hologram based on the research and conclusions of David Bohm and Karl H. Pribram. According to Talbot ESP, telepathy, and other paranormal phenomena are a product of this holographic model of reality. Talbot also wrote several horror novels.
