Alfred North Whitehead (1861-1947) was instrumental in pioneering the approach to metaphysics now known as process philosophy. Hartshorne was a doctoral student of Whitehead, who served as his assistant during the most metaphysically creative period of the Englishman's career. He was an early follower of Whitehead at University of Chicago Divinity School, where professors such as Hartshorne made Whitehead's philosophy arguably the most important intellectual thread running through the divinity school. Additionally, Hartshorne is noted for developing Alfred North Whitehead's process philosophy into process theology. Bound in publisher's dark blue cloth lettered in gilt; lacking the dust jacket. Very Good+ with light fading to spine and edges, slight rubbing to gilt lettering, and minor soiling to boards. Contents lightly tanned and with a scattered marks in pencil and a light cigar smoke odor. Whitehead is best-known for co-authoring landmark mathematical treatise Principia Mathematica with Bertrand Russell. Books signed by Whitehead are scarce. Signed.
