Alfred North Whitehead

    February 15, 1861 – December 30, 1947

    Alfred North Whitehead was an English mathematician and philosopher who became the defining figure of process philosophy. His thought conceives of the world as an interconnected web of interdependent processes, emphasizing the consequences of our actions. Whitehead's radical view of reality, where events rather than substances constitute existence, has become foundational for explorations in ecology, theology, education, and physics. His work continues to inspire scientific research and foster new approaches in philosophy, theology, and ecological ethics.

Whitehead liefert Antworten, die zu weitreichenden Einsichten führen und die Welt der Wissenschaft auf den Kopf stellen. Eine fesselnde Reise durch das Wesen der Natur.
