The rehabilitation of Whitehead: an analytic and historical..

---

Lucas treats Whitehead within the framework of major themes in current Anglo-American “analytic” philosophy, viewed against the backdrop of significant historical trends in European and American thought since the Enlightenment. This most misunderstood of twentieth-century philosophers is critically interpreted here.
Lucas examines the significance of Whitehead’s thought for current epistemology of science, for the anti-foundationalism debate, and more generally, for modal logic, action, theory, philosophical psychology, and the philosophy of mind. He shows how some recent analytic philosophy is now developing ideas concerning language, personal identity, and other topics that are found in Whitehead.
