The debunker is Ron Amundson, a philosophy professor who specializes in the philosophy of science and the rise of pseudosciences. The truth, according to a University of Hawaii professor who examined the evidence, is that 'there is no hundredth monkey phenomenon,' that the notion of a spontaneous spread of a behavior among Japanese monkeys is a fiction that is completely refuted by the published data of the same Japanese primatologists who, it is claimed, discovered the phenomenon. Elements of the nuclear disarmament movement have promoted the idea with the assertion that if enough human minds can be won to their cause, the whole world will suddenly be seized by an urge to disarm. The putative phenomenon was first popularized in a 1979 book, 'Lifetide' by Lyall Watson, and since then has gained increasing currency in other books, magazines and films. The idea is that once a certain number of minds, 100 monkey minds in the most famous example, share a common idea, they activate something called a collective consciousness that immediately transmits the same idea to other minds. What happened, so the story goes, was that whole troops of monkeys living on widely separated Japanese islands spontaneously acquired a new behavior - washing sand off food by dunking it in water - after a critical number of animals on one island learned the practice by the conventional method of imitation.
