Reviews

"This is an insightful and provocative account of Whitehead's metaphysics by two gifted and determined scholars … Between them, the authors do exhibit the requisite skills for fully understanding Whitehead and put them to good use in this remarkable, highly original treatment … I heartily recommend that all readers who have ever entertained interest in or curiosity about Whitehead read this remarkable and pathbreaking study. The authors, who write with enviable force and clarity, are by and large right on target in their constructive re-interpretations of his philosophy." – Notre Dame Philosophical Reviews
