  abstract: The Metaphysics of Experience styles itself as "a Sherpa guide to Process and Reality, whose function is to assist the serious reader in grasping the meaning of the text and to prevent falls into misinterpretation." Although originally published in 1925, Process and Reality has perhaps even more relevance to the contemporary scene in physics, biology, psychology, and the social sciences than it had in the mid-twenties. Hence its internal difficulty, its quasi-inaccessibility, is all the more tragic, since, unlike most metaphysical endeavors, it is capable of interpreting and unifying theories in the above sciences in terms of an organic world view, instead of selecting one theory as the paradigm and reducing all others to it. The author has made revisions for this 1998 edition.
  table of contents: Process philosophy and its problems -- Science and the modern world as a romantic version of process and reality -- The speculative scheme (PR, Part 1) -- Discussions and applications (PR, Part 2) -- The structure of a concrescence (PR, Part 3) -- The theory of extension (PR, Part 4) -- God and the world (PR, Part 5).
