Book Description
This is another book by English mathematician and philosopher Alfred North Whitehead, best known as the defining figure of the philosophical school known as process philosophy, which today has found application to a wide variety of disciplines, including ecology, theology, education, physics, biology, economics, and psychology, among other areas.Beginning in the late 1910s and early 1920s, Whitehead gradually turned his attention from mathematics to philosophy of science, and finally to metaphysics. He developed a comprehensive metaphysical system which radically departed from most of western philosophy. Whitehead argued that reality consists of processes rather than material objects, and that processes are best defined by their relations with other processes, thus rejecting the theory that reality is fundamentally constructed by bits of matter that exist independently of one another.[ Today Whitehead's philosophical works - particularly Process and Reality - are regarded as the foundational texts of process philosophy.

Book Description
Excerpt from The Organisation of Thought: Educational and Scientific The discourses included in this volume have been delivered as addresses on various occasions which are duly noted; the only exception is The Anatomy of Some Scientific Ideas, which is now published for the first time. These dis courses fall into two sections, the first five chapters deal with education, and the remaining three embody discussions on certain points arising in the philosophy of science. But a common line of reflection extends through the whole, and the two sections influence each other. I have left in each chapter the reference to the particular occasion of its first production, and I have not sought for a verbal consistency cover ing perplexity. But the various parts of the book were in fact composed with express reference to each other, so as to form one whole. I have to thank the Syndics of the Cambridge University Press for permission to republish the contents of Chapter V.

Book Description
Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made available for future generations to enjoy.
