{"product_id":"the-lure-of-whitehead-9780816679966","title":"The Lure of Whitehead","description":"\u003cp\u003eOnce largely ignored  the speculative philosophy of Alfred North Whitehead has assumed a new prominence in contemporary theory across the humanities and social sciences. Philosophers and artists  literary critics and social theorists  anthropologists and computer scientists have all embraced Whiteheads thought  extending it through inquiries into the nature of life  the problem of consciousness  and the ontology of objects  as well as into experiments in education and digital media. The Lure of Whitehead offers readers not only a comprehensive introduction to Whiteheads philosophy but also a demonstration of how his work advances our emerging understanding of life in the posthuman epoch.
