‘With penetrating insight and meticulous research, Dr Dossey reveals the power of prayer to harm as well as to help. This book will forever change how you think and what you pray for.’
Joan Borysenko, Ph.D.

‘Dossey’s intelligent and passionate work will bring readers closer to the conviction that their personal interventions into the divine order are effective – sometimes too much so.’
Publishers Weekly

A dramatic and controversial exploration of the negative side of prayer – how it can be used, intentionally or unconsciously, to harm, and what we can do to protect ourselves – from the New York Times – bestselling author of Healing Words.

Dr. Larry Dossey, the nation’s foremost authority on prayer in medicine, warns that just as prayer can be used to positively affect health and healing, it can also be used for negative and destructive means. Through remarkable true stories, case histories, and scientific analysis, Dossey explores the nature of ‘toxic’ prayer and teaches us how we can protect ourselves from its threatening influence.
