A. N. Whitehead and Social Theory: Tracing a Culture of Thought by Michael Halewood “This book outlines Whitehead’s philosophy, using it to reorient a range of specific questions and topics within contemporary social theory, namely: the relation of language and the body; the relationship between the individual and society; sexual difference; conceptions of nature; the question of realism; the concept of the social; and capitalism as a process.” |
Nature and Logos: A Whiteheadian Key to Merleau-Ponty’s Fundamental Thought by William S. Hamrick and Jan Van der Veken “This is the first book-length account of how Maurice Merleau-Ponty used certain texts by Alfred North Whitehead to develop an ontology based on nature, and how he could have used other Whitehead texts that he did not know in order to complete his last ontology. This account is enriched by several of Merleau-Ponty’s unpublished writings not previously available in English . . .” |
