The book aims to provide a process-philosophical perspective
philosophizing itself. It employs the perspectives of process
philosophy for elucidating the historical development of
philosophical ideas. The doctrine of historicism in the history of
ideas has it that each era and perhaps even each thinker employs
philosophical ideas in such a user-idiosyncratic way that there is
no continuity and indeed no connectivity of public access across
the divides of space, time, and culture. In opposition to such a
view, the present processist deliberations see the development of
ideas as a matter of generic processes that have ample room for
connectivity and recurrence, permitting the very self-same
conception to be shared by philosophers of different settings.
Beyond arguing this histico-processism on general principles, the
book presents a series of case studies of significant philosophical
topics that illustrate and elaborate upon the developmental
connectivities at issue.
