Sheldrake's basic folly, argues Wolpert, is that he is pushing the notion
of morphic resonance at precisely the time when strictly biochemical analysis
of cell structure and organization is close to providing a comprehensive explanation for
morphogenesis, the process by which living creatures acquire their shapes.
Sheldrake contends that the shapes
cells assume and the forms
of tissues, organs, and the whole animal — in other words,
morphogenesis itself — are not explained by protein synthesis alone.
