 '''Rupert Sheldrake''' (* 28 June 1942 in Newark-on-Trent, Nottinghamshire) is a British author and biologist. In 1981 he developed the hypothesis of what he called [[Morphic_Field|morphic fields]], which influence the development of structures in nature.

 Sheldrake's model of morphogenetic fields has found a very broad acceptance in philosophically open-minded circles, especially in the 90s in the so-called New Age movement, and since then has served as a popular explanatory model for many connections between mind and nature - also independently and outside the scientific version presented by himself.

 Rupert Sheldrake is also a victim of slander of the international [[skeptics movement|pseudo-skeptics]], which in Germany includes the [[GWUP|GWUP]]. His  article in [http://de.pluspedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia Wikipedia] is closely monitored so that it remains defamatory rather than neutral. Sheldrake is thus also a [http://de.pluspedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia-Opfer Wikipedia victim].

 In ''A New Science of Life'' (1981) Sheldrake presents his ''Hypothesis of Morphic Resonance'', which postulates the existence of so-called ''morphogenetic fields'' which are supposed to influence form development in nature. The biologist [https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adolf_Portmann Adolf Portmann] has also expressed basically similar ideas on shape formation in plants and animals<ref>Adolf Portmann: An den Grenzen des Wissens, Econ, Wien 1974, et al. p. 136ff, ISBN 3-430-17599-2</ref>. Since then, Sheldrake's hypothesis has undergone various extensions. For example, morphogenetic fields should not only extend to forms, but to the laws of nature themselves, which thus become "habits of nature". With the [[Morphic_Field|Morphogenetic Fields]] Sheldrake gives an extended meaning to a term from developmental biology coined in the 1920s. Following on from the morphogenetic fields, Sheldrake examined the extrasensory abilities of humans and animals.

 In Hyderabad in southern India, he spent about six years studying the physiology of tropical vegetable plants. From 1974 to 1978, he researched the physiology of tropical legumes as a leading plant physiologist at the International Crops Research Institute for the Semi-Arid Tropics (ICRISAT). He remained a consultant for this institution until 1985.

 Sheldrake particularly resents the dogmatic attachment of "materialistic science", which considers everything that cannot be measured physically or chemically to be nonsense. There are arguably 10 dogmas, which he enumerates above all. Among other things the so-called "constants", which are partly only determined by the respective physicists (he mentions examples, among other things the speed of the light, which deviated from the "constant", until it came to the determination together with fixed parameters).
