Rupert Sheldrake is a biologist and author whose work delves into the development and behavior of plants and animals, telepathy, perception, and metaphysics. Drawing inspiration from philosopher Henri Bergson, he developed the theory of morphic resonance, exploring the interconnectedness of natural phenomena. Sheldrake's writing is characterized by an interdisciplinary approach, bridging scientific inquiry with philosophical contemplation. Readers will appreciate his profound explorations into the nature of reality and the living world.
This book develops the revolutionary theory that behaviour and social systems are not only governed by immutable and mechanistic laws, which is the traditional viewpoint, but also by habits transmitted by nature's inherent memory. Rupert Sheldrake also wrote "A New Science of Life".
Suggests that the laws of nature may not have been fixed when the universe was born, but may themselves have grown and evolved, and challenges the established views of nature as an inanimate machine
Challenging the fundamental assumptions of modern science, this ground-breaking radical hypothesis suggests that nature itself has memory. Sheldrake's hypothesis has been featured in Science, Nature, New Scientist, USA TODAY, and Newsweek. Drawings and photos throughout.
