Description
Process thought underlies many areas of contemporary philosophy and beyond. This introduction to process-relational philosophy, based on Alfred North Whitehead's work, provides a clear overview of his vision for understanding reality as a relational process. Whitehead's philosophy offers a way forward from reductive materialism and Cartesian dualism, showing how minds arise from bodies and how freedom and creativity are fundamental to the world. This approach is being incorporated into courses in various fields, including environmental ethics and science studies. By exploring Whitehead's ideas, readers can gain insight into a relational world that underlies many of our deepest intuitions about the natural world and our place within it.
