Z content revised JUL Alfred North Whitehead Alfred North Whitehead (b.1861 - d.1947), British mathematician, logician and philosopher best known for his work in mathematical logic and who, in collaboration with Bertrand Russell , authored the landmark three-volume Principia Mathematica Although there are significant continuities throughout his thought, Whitehead's intellectual life is often divided into three periods. The first corresponds roughly with his time at Cambridge, from 1884 to 1910, during which he worked primarily on logic and mathematics. The second corresponds roughly with his time at London, from 1910 to 1924, during which he concentrated mainly on issues in the philosophy of science. The third corresponds roughly with his time at Harvard, from 1924 onward, during which he worked on more general issues in philosophy, including the development of a comprehensive metaphysical system which has come to be known as process philosophy.

He is said to have been an upright man with countless friends and Alfred North Whitehead's son North Whitehead wrote of his grandfather:- He never asked a favour of anyone and never shirked what he considered to be a duty, but it cannot be said that he spent more time absorbing the lessons of the New Testament than was necessitated by his calling. Alfred Whitehead married Maria Sarah Buckmaster, who came from London, on the 20th of December 1851. She is described as (see [6]);- ... an unimaginative, small minded woman with some wit but no sense of humour. Alfred and Maria Whitehead had four children with Alfred North Whitehead as the youngest of the family. He had two brother who were seven and eight years older than he was, and a sister who was two years older. Whitehead was always treated by his parents as the baby of the family and, rather surprisingly, they considered him a sickly and frail child when it appears that this was not the case. Whitehead was not sent to primary school because his parents thought that he was too delicate so he was taught at home by his father until he was 14. Other than the usual childhood illnesses he was, despite his parents views, a healthy child. He received much affection from his father and brothers (but sadly little from his mother) and he seems to have had a childhood which was not unhappy, even though he was on his own a great deal and must have been somewhat lonely.

: Stanford Encyclopedia of Philosophy - Whitehead, Alfred North Whitehead, Alfred North (1861-1947) [From Routledge Encyclopedia of Philosophy] Whitehead made fundamental contributions to modern logic and created one of the most controversial metaphysical systems of the twentieth century. He drew out what he took to be the revolutionary consequences for philosophy of the new discoveries in mathematics, logic and physics, developing these consequences first in logic and then in the philosophy of science and speculative metaphysics. His work constantly returns to the question: what is the place of the constructions of mathematics, science and philosophy in the nature of things? Whitehead collaborated with Bertrand Russell on Principia Mathematica (1910-13), which argues that all pure mathematics is derivable from a small number of logical principles. He went on in his philosophy of science to describe nature in terms of overlapping series of events and to argue that scientific explanations are constructed on that basis. He finally expanded and redefined his work by developing a new kind of speculative metaphysics. Stated chiefly in Process and Reality (1929), his metaphysics is both an extended reflection on the character of philosophical inquiry and an account of the nature of all things as a self-constructing ¡®process¡¯. On this view, reality is incomplete, a

ALFRED NORTH WHITEHEAD Mathematician/Philosopher Alfred North Whitehead began teaching mathematics in 1884 at Trinity College in Cambridge, England. Between 1910 and 1913 he published the three-volume work Principia Mathematica with his former student, Bertrand Russell , an attempt to define the logical foundation of science and mathematics. Whitehead taught in England until 1924, when he moved to the United States to accept a chair in philosophy from Harvard University. In 1929 he published Process and Reality , and spent the rest of his life writing and lecturing on what is called process theology.

The Integration Website Authoring a Thesaurus of Integrative Knowledge Alfred North WHITEHEAD LIFE Alfred North Whitehead, English mathematician and philosopher, was born in England in 1861, schooled at home until age 14, and graduated at Trinity College, Cambridge, UK in 1884. Despite his poor publication record, he was promoted to a Lectureship in mathematics, and tought from 1888 until 1911. He started to work on a Treatise on Universal Algebra in 1891. Having little prospects of a mathematics chair at Cambridge, he moved to the University of London, UK, where he appointed lecturer in applied mathematics and mechanics (1911-14) and professor of mathematics (1914-24). Ultimately, he moved to Harvard, US, in 1924 where he was professor of philosophy and remained there for the rest of his life. "The first lecture in a course on philosophy which you had ever attended was the one given by yourself", was he reminded when, in 1945, he received the Order of Merit. He died in 1947 at the age of 86. THEORY Whitehead's distinction rests upon his contributions to mathematics and logic, the philosophy of science, and the study of metaphysics. In the field of mathematics Whitehead extended the range of algebraic procedures and, in collaboration with Bertrand Russell, wrote

14. Alfred North Whitehead For The Muddleheaded A laudatory essay by Richard Lubbock, expounding the value of whitehead's ideas for Western thought. http://www3.sympatico.ca/rlubbock/ANW.html

Alfred North Whitehead Philosopher for the Muddleheaded T he moment I was born, I knew that William James was right. The world of the new-born baby is indeed "All one great blooming, buzzing confusion". I was alarmed and baffled by the tumult that raged around and inside me. Intuition told me, "Here's something that matters greatly." Had I possessed language, I would have demanded "What the devil's going on here?" That's the prime philosophical question, and I've been trying out different answers ever since. I have come to believe that Alfred North Whitehead can tell me what it's all about. In my view the writings of Whitehead point at the most hopeful and all-embracing philosophy of all time. Whitehead aimed for nothing less than the refutation of gloomy scientific materialism. He hoped to reconstruct the moral universe without disrupting the beneficence of science. The structure he devised is not everything a devout religious believer would wish. Nor has his eloquence yet overswept Western culture and conquered it. Nonetheless, when they become better known, his insights will replace the nihilism, and correct the moral slackness of our times. Once you have allowed Whitehead's powerful engine of hope to transform your attitude to life you will never again need to consult another philosopher. Those sinister philosophical miseries of the 20th centuryyou know who I mean: malignant Heidegger, disjointed Wittgenstein, cross-eyed Husserl, sour Sartreyou can consign their jeremiads to the fire. They failed to salute the quantum and relativistic earthquakes of our century and so they're dust, history, trash. Forget 'em.

Alfred North Whitehead Alfred North Whitehead (1861 - 1947) was a British philosopher and mathematician who worked in logic, mathematics, philosophy of science and metaphysics. His best known work is the Principia Mathematica which he wrote with Bertrand Russell. Whitehead is perhaps most well known for developing process philosophy, which was then developed into process theology by many liberal theologian/philosophers, such as Charles Hartshorne. Process theology has since been accepted as a valid way of understanding God by some liberal Christian and Jewish scholars and laypeople. Process philosophy Process philosophy is a metaphysical system developed by Alfred North Whitehead, and described in his book Process and Reality . Process philosophy believes that fundamental elements of the universe are occasions of experience . According to this notion, what people commonly think of as concrete objects are actually just successions of these occasions of experience. Occasions of experience can be collected into groupings; something complex such as a human being is thus a grouping of many smaller occasions of experience. According to Whitehead, everything in the universe is characterized by experience (which is not to be confused with consciousness); there is no mind-body duality under this system, because "mind" is simply seen as a very developed kind of experienceing. Whitehead's philosophy resembles in some ways the concept of monads first proposed by
