Taschenbuch. Condición: Neu. Neuware - 'Process and Reality' is a foundational work of twentieth-century metaphysics and the definitive statement of Alfred North Whitehead's philosophy of organism. Derived from the prestigious Gifford Lectures delivered at the University of Edinburgh, this ambitious essay in cosmology seeks to construct a system of speculative philosophy that can explain the diverse elements of human experience within a single, coherent framework.Whitehead challenges the traditional substance-based metaphysics of the Enlightenment, proposing instead a dynamic 'process' view of reality. He argues that the fundamental constituents of the universe are not static objects but 'actual entities'-interrelated events that are constantly in flux and characterized by their 'prehensions' of the world around them. By bridging the gap between science, religion, and philosophy, Whitehead explores complex themes of time, causation, and the relationship between the physical and the mental.Regarded as one of the most significant and challenging philosophical texts of the modern era, 'Process and Reality' provides a rigorous intellectual foundation for what is now known as process philosophy. It remains an essential read for scholars of metaphysics, the philosophy of science, and those seeking a deeper understanding of the interconnected nature of existence.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.
