"""The mind of Faber pours forth its own genius in this munificent engagement with Whitehead's--and thereby with all that is."" --Catherine Keller, Drew University ""Alfred North Whitehead is one of the most original thinkers of the past century, but also one of the most difficult. In this lucidly argued book, Roland Faber cuts the Gordian knot of Whitehead's thought, pulling strands apart and then carefully following all their convolutions and interrelations. Faber makes Whitehead newly available to us in the twenty-first century."" --Steven Shaviro, Wayne State University ""Roland Faber . . . is the first to offer us a comprehensive picture of the mind of Whitehead. He understands Whitehead deeply and comprehensively and combines first-rate scholarship with great skill in explanation. In a time when Whitehead is still excluded from all the academic disciplines but interest in his integrating thinking is exploding, this may be the breakthrough we need to have his voice appreciated in our educational system."" --John B. Cobb Jr., Claremont School of Theology, emeritus"
