simulo reviewed Modes of Thought by Alfred North Whitehead
None
3 stars
It is supposed to be the easiest-to-read book by Whitehead. It is still not easy, though. It is a critique of the of philosophy’s focus on static entities and context-free truth and emphasizes process and meaning instead. Some of the ideas are similar to Dreyfus's, Ingold and Rorty.
