Review
"Few of us recognize revolutions in the making. Anyone who wants to be able to say in the future, 'I was there,' had better read The Presence of
the Past."
― Nicholas Humphrey, author of The Inner Eye
"Bold, clear, and incisive, Sheldrake's thesis constitutes a sweeping challenge to the very fundamentals of established science. It may outrage or
delight, but it will never fail to stimulate. Sheldrake has a remarkable ability to identify the weak spots of scientific orthodoxy." ― Paul Davies,
author of The Edge of Infinity
"So compelling that it sets the reader to underlining words and scribbling notes in the margin." ― Washington Post
"Rupert Sheldrake is the most controversial scientist on Earth." ― Robert Anton Wilson, author of Prometheus Rising and The Illuminati Papers

This might seem like nonsense to those with no concern for spiritual things, but it makes
sense to me. It ties in. So, too, since mainstream science hasn't the answers, alternatives
should be considered. Admittedly, spiritual experiences are somewhat subjective. But it's
supposed to be that way.

John S. Reid
Dr. Sheldrake proposes “morphic fields” as a plausible explanation for the unexplainable –
everything from hydrogen atoms to termite colonies and beyond. His theory of “causative
formation” seems to provide reasonable explanations for these otherwise unexplainable
events – e.g., where is the gene that codes a fungus-farming termite colony to build a carbon
dioxide / oxygen gas exchange apparatus? (Pgs. 278-279.) Well – there isn’t one – there is
only a “field” that guides this behavior (according to Sheldrake). Sheldrake’s theory is no less
speculative than the theories of dark matter, dark energy, and gravity itself. Bottom line –
just because you can’t detect it doesn’t mean it doesn’t exist. So far, so good. But …
Where Dr. Sheldrake loses some credibility is in trying to extend his theory too far –
specifically, in Ch. 14 he attempts to explain the evolution of sociology by the use of morphic
fields – but it just doesn’t accord with reality over the last 100 years. Basically, while much
can be explained by morphic fields, not everything fits within this framework.

scientific establishment and where society is being led by this way of thinking. He proposed
his concepts of Formative Causation, Morphic Resonance, and the memory of nature
(Sheldrake, 1988) as a way of explaining how a species retains it form through many
generations as well as the migratory patterns of some animals, birds and insects. Updated in
2012, The Presence of The Past: Morphic Resonance and the Memory of Nature, Sheldrake
brings his ideas and concepts of Formative Causation closer to becoming a valid theory.
“Fields” were first proposed by James Clerk Maxwell then expanded by Albert Einstein in his
General Theory of Relativity and are now well accepted in the scientific community. In The
Presence of the Past (2012) Rupert Sheldrake advances his concept of morphogenetic fields;

This book is scary because it discloses how much science does not yet know about really
important things concerning human behavior and offers as an explanation a theory that
must be taken on faith as it cannot yet be determined by experiment, i.e., the existence of
morphic energy fields which explains how species are recreated from generation to
generation, i.e., morphogenesis. Sheldrake provides countless examples that he claims
present evidence for something beyond DNA and environment to explain the way things are
in life on earth. There are not many books based upon inference that will challenge your faith
in science as much as this one.
When you realize that no one really knows what happens in the process of regeneration and
reproduction of species that makes a zebra a zebra and a man a man...or a woman...it pushes
you over a waterfall with no bottom. Of course, there is no explanation of where these
morphic fields come from in the first place at the beginning and who or what controls them.
Moreover, they do not account for the vast amount of variations among the several members

Full on. Need to take your time with this one. Lots to take in. Read most of it and found it
very thought provoking.

I have always appreciated Rupert Sheldrake's out of the box thinking since I first read his
book on how dog's know their owners are coming home. This book is an updated version
(2012) of a very similar earlier work describing his morphic fields and causative formation
theories. They make a tremendous amount of sense, but the scientific community is not very
open to his theories as they do not jive with much of the culturally based attitudes cemented
into much of their attitudes. I applaud his courage to spread a very good set of theories that
are quite encompassing. The theories themselves can be summed up in a lot fewer pages, but
Sheldrake gives us a great philosophical, scientific, biologic background of how theories and
ideas have evolved through the centuries resulting in the current parameters that scientists
are unknowingly stuck in. This book is both historically and theoretically illuminating.
