James J. Bono, University at Buffalo, The State University of New York Explores the contemporary significance of Alfred North Whitehead's Symbolism: Its Meaning and Effect Exciting insights are offered in this new examination of Whitehead's Barbour-Page lectures that were published as Symbolism, offering contemporary implications of his views on symbolism in an era of new scientific, cultural and technological developments. This collection of 11 essays by leading Whitehead scholars relates the themes of Whitehead's book to a range of contemporary discussions and debates, reinvigorating the relevance of Whitehead's philosophy. It also serves as a critical point of entry into Whitehead's more lengthy and complex work such as Process and Reality, and to his work as a whole. Roland Faber is the Kilsby Family/John B. Cobb, Jr., Professor of Process Studies at Claremont School of Theology and Founder of the Whitehead Research Project. Jeffrey A. Bell is Professor of Philosophy at Southeastern Louisiana University.
