Beschreibung

In 1925, philosopher Alfred North Whitehead presented a series of eight lectures, delivering a groundbreaking exploration of the cultural and philosophical implications of scientific progress from the classical civilizations of the ancient world to the nineteenth century. One of the most influential thinkers of the twentieth century, Whitehead posits philosophy as a critical interpreter, illuminating science's hidden assumptions and bridging the gap between scientific findings and the evolving human experience. The lectures examined how scientific discoveries reshaped our perception of the physical world and redefined how we understand our place in the universe. Whitehead's insightful commentary remains a significant contribution to the ongoing dialogue between science and the humanities and prompts a holistic worldview, reflecting the interconnectedness of all aspects of existence. It is an essential read for those interested in the "process philosophy" of science.
