Description

In Process and Reality and other works, Alfred North Whitehead struggled to come to terms with the impact the new science of quantum mechanics would have on metaphysics. This ambitious book is the first extended analysis of the intricate relationships between relativity theory, quantum mechanics, and Whitehead's cosmology. Michael Epperson illuminates the intersection of science and philosophy in Whitehead's work - and details Whitehead's attempts to fashion ontology coherent with quantum anomalies. Including a non-specialist introduction to quantum mechanics, Epperson adds an essential new dimension to our understanding of Whitehead - and of the constantly enriching encounter of science and philosophy in our century.

Author Biography:

Michael Epperson is the founding director of the Center for Philosophy and the Natural Sciences in the College of Natural Sciences and Mathematics at California State University, Sacramento, where he is a research professor and principal investigator.
