Leemon McHenry argues that Whitehead's metaphysics provides a
better basis for achieving a unification of physical theory than a
traditional substance metaphysics. He investigates the influence of
Maxwell's electromagnetic field, Einstein's theory of relativity
and quantum mechanics on the development of the ontology of events
and compares Whitehead's theory to his contemporaries, C. D. Broad
and Bertrand Russell, as well as W. V. Quine. In this way, McHenry
defends the naturalised and speculative approach to metaphysics as
opposed to analytical and linguistic methods that arose in the 20th
century.
