Mmerose, I was the person who stimulated Rupert to write his book on dogs. I was in his online forum from 1999 to about 2001 or 2002 when Matthew who ran the forum for Sheldrake closed the forum. I had seen a documentary of varied scientists having a discussion. Sheldrake was there with Daniel Dennett. Sheldrake asked Dennett about Dennett’s dog 🐶. I remarked how I admired Rupert’s push back and that same year he published his book 📕 on dogs. I was at a lecture of Sheldrake in DC, and to my surprise when I asked him if he thought the universe was ALIVE his response included quotes from personal stories I shared in his forum about my sheep. I mentioned that when I asked Terrence McKenna at his lecture in Oregon, ‘if the universe was alive’ he answered : “YES, it is alive because he had read Alfred North Whitehead.” Years later, Sheldrake became a pan psychic.
Wow! A lion's share of my favorite people! "Darwin's Dangerous Idea" was a great favorite: I think it may be handy for re-reading. I envy your personal connections.
Whoa, pulled up DARWINS DANGEROUS IDEA. There are 7 episodes of 2 hour video on Utube.
The documentary I had seen was :
A Glorious Accident. A documentary for VPRO by Wim Kayzer, first aired in the Netherlands in 1993 and on PBS stations in the United States in 1994. More info. Featuring Oliver Sacks, Stephen Jay Gould, Freeman Dyson, Rupert Sheldrake, Steven Toulmin and Daniel Dennett. It was a fascinating give and take of views.
Great minds.....(you know). You can't ignore Rupert Sheldrake's experiments with (book) "Dogs who Know When Their Owners are Coming Home."
