The Quantum of Explanation

- Whitehead's Radical Empiricism

Om The Quantum of Explanation

Using a complete interpretation of Whitehead¿s philosophical and mathematical writings, this book argues that Whitehead has never been properly understood, nor has the depth and breadth of his contribution to the search for knowledge been assimilated by his successors. It applies Whitehead¿s philosophy to problems in the interpretation of science, empirical knowledge, and nature, and develops a new account of philosophical naturalism that will contribute to the current debate. The authors also draw attention to some of the most important differences between process theology and Whitehead¿s thought, arguing in favor of a Whiteheadian naturalism that is independent of theological concerns.
