These essays, by established scholars in the field, demonstrate how a wider and deeper understanding of the world can be obtained using process philosophical concepts, how the distortions and blockages inevitably inherent in substantivist talk can be set aside, and how new and fertile lines of research in the sciences can be opened as a result.Process ThoughtProcess philosophyProcess philosophy.100Dibben Mark1851673Kelly Thomas156691MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910955506303321Applied process thought4445867UNINA
