Abstract

When we say “holography” we tend to think of it in terms of a new and fresh discipline that sprang up only a decade or two ago. Many have never even heard the word, and a few more have never yet seen a hologram. Those who have, bestow holography with all the veneration that seems to be its natural due paid by many to this and other technological novelties of this our atomic age. And yet, holography is almost as old as this century — at least in thought, if not in practice.
