The basin of attaction for an attractive fixed point is the region that
converges on the point under the operation of the function. Look at the
inverse of the function. The region that nearby points reach under the
operation of the inverse is the basin you're looking for. Note that if the
function operates discretely, the resulting "basin" may well be quite
strange...

Cheers,
