At the beginning of his magnum opus, Process and Reality (1929),
Whitehead lists a series of beliefs which he thinks are widely held
by contemporary philosophers. They are all condemned as dangerously
mistaken. What are these myths? Why are they rejected? In the works
of which modern thinker did they arise? What precisely went wrong?
At what stage in the development of Western thought did this
happen? By tackling these questions, Pierfrancesco Basile makes it
possible to grasp the main concepts of Whitehead's process
metaphysics - especially the crucial notion that being and power
are one and the same - and appreciate the complex way this is
rooted in the modern philosophical tradition.
