Description
Change your thinking; change the world . . .Philosophy has gotten a bad rap. As an academic discipline, it is mocked as irrelevant to modern society. But bias against philosophy doesn't mean we don't have one. We all have a basic worldview. This is as true for whole civilizations as for individuals, a point driven home daily as the dire consequences of the Western worldview-the most urgent being climate change-are now inescapable. But if Western philosophy has brought us to this razor's edge, would another one be any better? The twelve contributors to this book argue, yes: the process philosophy of Alfred North Whitehead.But what is process philosophy? This book is designed not only to answer the what, but also to demonstrate the how and why-how process philosophy provides a practical answer to so many of the potentially catastrophic issues now facing us, and why it is so urgently needed.
