*Dr. Rupert Sheldrake* is a plant scientist and developmental biologist, widely known for his controversial theories about 'morphic resonance’ and its role in nature. In the mid-90s, with his colleagues Ralph Abraham and Terence, he participated in a series of ’trialogues’ at Esalen Institute that became known as Trialogues at the Edge of the West. These conversations were memorialized in two books, Chaos, Creativity and Cosmic Consciousness, and The Evolutionary Mind: Conversations on Science, Imagination and Spirit.
*Dr. Ralph Abraham* is a mathematician, known for his contributions to dynamical systems theory and Chaos Theory. He was professor of Mathematics at the University of California Santa Cruz since 1968. In 1975 he founded the Visual Math Institute at UC Santa Cruz. He participated in the Esalen ’Trialogues’ with Sheldrake and Terence.
In this last installment of the Fireside Chat series, they reflected on the Trialogues and the friendship that these three intellectual giants shared over more than a decade.
