Publisher's Synopsis
The Concept of Nature is a book written by Alfred North Whitehead, which contains a series of lectures he delivered at Trinity College in November 1919. The book explores the concept of nature and its relationship to science and philosophy. Whitehead argues that traditional views of nature as a passive and mechanistic entity are inadequate, and instead proposes a new understanding of nature as an active and creative force. He also discusses the role of mathematics in understanding nature, and the importance of metaphysics in providing a framework for scientific inquiry. The book is considered a seminal work in the philosophy of science and has had a significant impact on modern scientific thought.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
