internal linkRUPERT SHELDRAKE: : I must admit that my interest in mathematical models has enormously increased since I came across internal linkATTRACTORS. No one in any other branch of science has been able to think in terms of teleological principles that pull from in front. You, Ralph, have done more than any mathematician I know to make the essential features of this kind of mathematics accessible. There's not a single equation in your four volumes on visual dynamics. Through diagrams, you give the essence of what dynamic systems are. Normally, mathematical ideas are hidden behind an opaque cloud of symbols that most of us can't penetrate. It's
as if our only experience of music was looking at the scores of symphonies with out ever actually hearing the symphonies themselves. These symbols refer to things that for real mathematicians are visual intuitions.

Attractors have really changed our way of thinking about nature because they've made it possible to think about what Aristotle called the entelechy, the end that attracted toward itself that internal linkprocess of change. What I'd like to know is how you think attractors work. No matter how we try to get out of it, they seem to imply a pulling from in front rather than a pushing from behind, something that is more Aristotelian than mechanistic. At the cosmological level, we arrive at what internal linkTerence and I were discussing this morning- the idea of an attractor for the entire cosmic internal linkevolutionary process."
