A.N. Whitehead (Alfred North Whitehead)

Alfred North Whitehead (1861-1947) was a British philosopher and mathematician known for his work in the foundations of mathematics, logic, and metaphysics. He is best known for developing process philosophy, which emphasizes becoming and change over static existence. His influential book, "Process and Reality," argues that reality is composed of dynamic processes rather than fixed entities. Whitehead also collaborated with Bertrand Russell on "Principia Mathematica," a seminal work in mathematical logic. His ideas have significantly impacted various fields, including science, education, and theology, promoting a view of interconnectedness in the universe.
