Praise for The Sense Of Being Stared At

You will certainly never take the miracle of the senses for granted again

Dr James Le Fanu, The Tablet

Sheldrake uses many case studies, along with scientific theory, to support his research, and the result is, quite literally, mind-expanding

The Good Book Guide

Dr Rupert Sheldrake continues to chart a new course in our understanding ...The application of this understanding has the potential to heal our world

Deepak Chopra, M.D.

[Sheldrake's] genius lies in his taking well-attested anecdotal phenomena like telepathy, the sense of being stared at and anticipating alarm calls, then puts them to the scientific test. In doing so his work not only extends - indeed stretches - the mind, it extends science in a new and creative direction.
