Process and Reality: An Essay in Cosmology

Alfred North Whitehead’s Process and Reality (1929) is a seminal work in philosophy, presenting his comprehensive process philosophy and metaphysical system. Whitehead challenges traditional substance-based metaphysics, proposing that reality is fundamentally composed of processes and events rather than static entities. The book introduces key concepts such as actual occasions, prehensions, and the interrelation of time, experience, and the universe. Written in a dense and rigorous style, it offers a radical rethinking of cosmology, existence, and the nature of experience. This work is essential for philosophers, theologians, and scholars interested in metaphysics, process thought, and the philosophical foundations of science.
