Description

The Quantum of Explanation presents a groundbreaking reinterpretation of Alfred North Whitehead's philosophical and mathematical contributions to cosmological and scientific inquiry. Auxier and Herstein challenge conventional scholarship by demonstrating that Whitehead's work has been fundamentally misunderstood and underappreciated by subsequent philosophers and scholars. This Routledge Studies in American Philosophy volume employs an entirely new interpretive framework to reveal the full depth and breadth of Whitehead's radical empiricism and its practical applications to contemporary problems in the philosophy of science. The book bridges abstract philosophical theory with concrete scientific interpretation, offering readers a comprehensive reassessment of how explanation functions within both philosophical and cosmological contexts.

Key Features

Offers a bold new theory of explanation grounded in Alfred North Whitehead's philosophical and mathematical writings.

Provides an entirely new interpretive structure for understanding Whitehead's contributions to American philosophy and scientific thought.

Demonstrates direct applications of Whitehead's radical empiricism to unresolved problems in the interpretation of science.

Part of the Routledge Studies in American Philosophy series, offering rigorous scholarly analysis for academic audiences.
