Description
Cosmos, Chaos, and Process is a comprehensivehistory and normative analysis of the tension betweenthe ideas of order and disorder in Western thought,as this has taken shape in philosophy, religion, andscience. Chapters with titles like Cosmos as TrueMyth, God and the Speed of Light, and 2+2 Is NotFour offer a survey of process philosophy (andanti-process philosophy) in all its various forms,from the pre-Socratics to Superstring Theory.
