Neuropsychological Foundations of Conscious Experience retraces the growth of microgenetic theory from its beginnings in neuropsychology and aphasia in relation to other genetic models of cognition. The account of the mind/brain state and subjective time and change is explored in relation to psychoanalytic concepts of the unconscious as well as philosophical ideas on intentionality, subjectivity and truth. In a final chapter, the theory aims to elucidate creative thinking and mystical experience. The primary aim is to aid the reader to see the progression from clinical studies to theoretical speculation in a way that condenses more extensive and technical writings. This book should appeal to...
In Untying the Gordian Knot: Process, Reality, and Context, Timothy E. Eastman proposes a new creative synthesis, the Logoi framework—which is radically inclusive and incorporates both actuality and potentiality—to show how the fundamental notions of process, logic, and relations, woven with triads of input-output-context and quantum logical distinctions, can resolve a baker’s dozen of age-old philosophic problems. Further, Eastman leverages a century of advances in quantum physics and the Relational Realism interpretation pioneered by Michael Epperson and Elias Zafiris and augmented by the independent research of Ruth Kastner and Hans Primas to resolve long-standing issues in understa...
A. N. Whitehead (1861–1947) is widely regarded as one of the most significant scientists, philosophers and thinkers of the 20th century. His philosophical work has had a profound impact on the development of philosophy in almost all of its areas. Actually, the sheer breadth and influence of his philosophical contributions is such that it is almost impossible to enumerate all the areas of philosophy that have been influenced by him. His concepts possess a historical evolution and are in a perpetual state of development, particularly within the context of contemporary Whiteheadian scholarship. Whiteheadian philosophers do, of course, investigate and develop further Whitehead's legacy, and it is thus advisable to probe these contemporary assessments of Whitehead. The present volume aims to do just that. In order to do so, the book is divided into four parts: (1) General concepts and basic skills in education; (2) The future of education; (3) Arts and ethics; (4) Community, medicine, psychology, AI.

This book brings together papers from a conference that took place in the city of L'Aquila, 4–6 April 2019, to commemorate the 10th anniversary of the earthquake that struck on 6 April 2009. Philosophers and scientists from diverse fields of research debated the problem that, on 6 April 1922, divided Einstein and Bergson: the nature of time. For Einstein, scientific time is the only time that matters and the only time we can rely on. Bergson, however, believes that scientific time is derived by abstraction, even in the sense of extraction, from a more fundamental time. The plurality of times envisaged by the theory of Relativity does not, for him, contradict the philosophical intuition of ...
