description [...]B. postulates that Whitehead's approach "makes better sense" for describing the relationship between "the One and the Many": "a Whitehead[ean] society as an enduring structured field of activity for its constituent actual entities is able to offer a philosophical explanation for the fact of ongoing evolution within the cosmic process. Readers already familiar with Whitehead and process theorists, as well as with more recent thinkers like Stuart Kauffman and Niklas Luhmann (to name but a few), will find rich and constructive intellectual conversations across continents and decades. Because of the specificity of these conversations, it is questionable whether the book is appropriate as a general interest text for the thoughtful nonspecialist (as indicated in the introduction).
