Description: (English Author Best Known For His Research in Parapsychology)
Rupert Sheldrake is an English author and parapsychology researcher known for introducing the concept of morphic resonance. He has worked as a biochemist at Cambridge University, a Harvard scholar, a researcher at the Royal Society, and a plant physiologist for ICRISAT in India. Sheldrake's research covers paranormal phenomena such as precognition, telepathy, and the psychic staring effect. His ideas on morphic resonance challenge conventional biological beliefs related to development, inheritance, and memory. Critics question the validity of his theories due to a lack of empirical evidence and inconsistencies with established scientific principles.
