✦ Synopsis

Based on the Gifford Lectures which Whitehead delivered at the University of Edinburgh in 1927-8. Process and Reality presents a system of speculative philosophy which is based on a categorical scheme of investigation designed to explain how concrete aspects of human experience can provide a foundation for our understanding of reality. It also investigates how reality can be defined as a process of becoming.

本书是英国著名哲学家怀特海的代表作。该书明确提出并系统论述了所谓“过程哲学”思想：宇宙是活生生的、有生命的机体，它处于永恒的创造进化过程之中。构成宇宙的不是所谓原初的物质或客观的物质实体，而是由性质和关系所构成的“有机体”。有机体的根本特征是活动，活动表现为过程，过程则是构成有机体的各元素之间具有内在联系的、持续的创造过程，它表明一个机体可以转化为另一机体，因而整个宇宙表现为一个生生不息的活动过程。
