In <i>The Concept of Nature</i>, Alfred North Whitehead discusses the interrelatedness of time, space, and human perception.<BR />The idea of objects as 'occasions of experience', arguments against body-mind duality and the search for an all-encompassing 'philosophy of nature' are examined, with specific reference to contemporary (Einstein, with whose theory of relativity he has some complaints) and ancient (Plato, Aristotle) approaches.
