Beschreibung

Using a complete interpretation of Whitehead's philosophical and mathematical writings, this book argues that Whitehead has never been properly understood. It applies Whitehead's philosophy to problems in the interpretation of science, empirical knowledge, and nature, and develops a new account of philosophical naturalism.
