The Quantum of Explanation

Whitehead’s Radical Empiricism

By: Randall E. Auxier,Gary L. Herstein

The Quantum of Explanation advances a bold new theory of how explanation ought to be understood in philosophical and cosmological inquiries. Using a complete interpretation of Alfred North Whitehead’s philosophical and mathematical writings and an interpretive structure that is essentially new, Auxier and Herstein argue that Whitehead has never been properly understood, nor has the depth and breadth of his contribution to the human search for knowledge been assimilated by his successors. This important book effectively applies Whitehead’s philosophy to problems in the interpretation of science, empirical knowledge, and nature. It develops a new account of philosophical naturalism that will contribute to the current naturalism debate in both Analytic and Continental philosophy. Auxier and Herstein also draw attention to some of the most important differences between the process theology tradition and Whitehead’s thought, arguing in favor of a Whiteheadian naturalism that is more or less independent of theological concerns. This book offers a clear and comprehensive introduction to Whitehead’s philosophy and is an essential resource for students and scholars interested in American philosophy, the philosophy of mathematics and physics, and issues associated with naturalism, explanation and radical empiricism.

Survey

By: Gary Blackman,Justin Paton,Athol McCredie,Michael Findlay

This publication brings together for the first time a selection of photographs fron the fifty-year career of Dunedin photographer Gary Blackman. Photographing almost entirely in his spare time, Blackman has built a patient and perceptive record of well-known people and places, and treated less familiar subjects with a respect that establishes their importance in the record too.
