The final published book by Nobel Prize-winning author and philosopher Henri Bergson (1859-1941), La pensée et le mouvant, "Thought and Movement"-here translated as The Creative Mind: An Introduction to Metaphysics-is a masterly "autobiography" of his philosophical method. Through essays and lectures written between 1903 and 1923, Bergson retraces how and why he became a philosopher, along the way crafting a fascinating critique of philosophy itself. Until it leaves its false paths, he demonstrates, philosophy will remain only a wordy dialectic that at best "solves" false problems. With consummate skill and intensity Bergson shows that, for philosophy to become a genuine search for truth, metaphysics and science must be rooted in experience; and further, that to make real headway on this quest the spiritual dimension of human life and the importance of intuition must occupy center stage.
The Creative Mind has been a source of inspiration for physicists as well as philosophers, as Bergson reveals in these pages a lively philosophy uniting man's spiritual drive with his mastery of the physical world-that is, a philosophy ever "in movement," as the original French title plainly states. This Angelico Press edition includes a new foreword by Iain McGilchrist that serves to situate and burnish the pivotal importance of Bergson and this book amid the dark warren of today's errant paths.

Henri Bergson (1859-1941) was a renowned philosopher whose concept of creative evolution continues to dominate a large area of modern thought. He is known for his arguments that processes of immediate experience and intuition are more significant than abstract rationalism and science for understanding reality. Bergson was awarded the 1927 Nobel Prize in Literature "in recognition of his rich and vitalizing ideas and the brilliant skill with which they have been presented." In 1930, France awarded him its highest honor, the Grand-Croix de la Legion d'honneur.
