He reveals that telepathy depends on social bonds and traces its evolution from the connections between members of animal groups such as flocks, schools, and packs. Sheldrake shows that our minds and intentions extend beyond our brains into our surroundings with invisible connections that link us to each other, to the world around us, and even to the future. 650 0 $a Telepathy. 650 0 $a Precognition. 650 0 $a Attitude (Psychology) 941 $a 1 952 $l CAPH522 $d 20130803010256.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=0BA95518FC0211E29E97ABD5DAD10320Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
