Produktbeschreibung
This book explores the wide range of stimulating research possibilities Whitehead's process approach has to offer for different disciplines of thought: philosophy, physics, chemistry, biology and neuroscience, chemistry, psychology, education, technology, ethics and feminism as well as theology.

It will be demonstrated that with the use of Whitehead's relational process approach to reality long standing problems concerning contradictory aims caused by intellectual bifurcations are creatively transformed and - sometimes surprising - new solutions can be elaborated. In different fields of research this book is offering arguments for a fundamental paradigm shift.

In a period of major changes and growing complexity of problems in all fields of life which increasingly require interdisciplinary handling Whitehead's relational process approach gives substantiated hope for finding new pathways into a more human future. The papers of this book were presented at the 6th International Whitehead Conference 2006, Salzburg.

Hans-Joachim Sander, geb. 1959, Dr. theol., Professor für Dogmatik an der Universität Salzburg. Von 2006 bis 2007 war er Dekan an der Theologischen Fakultät.

Franz G. Riffert has studied philosophy, theology, psychology and education at Salzburg University, Austria. Since 1995 he has been working at the Department for Educational Research at Salzburg University.

Prof. Dr. Gernot G. Falkner, geb. 1941, arbeitete seit 1973 in den Instituten für Molekularbiologie und Limnologie der Österreichischen Akademie der Wissenschaften über die physiologische Anpassung von Mikroorganismen an Milieuänderungen. Die Untersuchungen zur komplexen Regulation dieses Prozesses führte zur Entdeckung eines "Gedächtnisses" von Bakterien für Änderungen in der Nährstoffzufuhr, dessen Charakterisierung 1996 von der Französischen Akademie der Wissenschaften mit einem Prix Montyon ausgezeichnet wurde. Seine Lehrtätigkeit als externer Dozent an der Universität Salzburg umfasste zwischen 1983 und 2015 Vorlesungen und Praktika über Stoffwechselphysiologie von Pflanzen, mikrobielle Ökologie und Biophysik. Im Wintersemester 2016/2017 leitete er eine Lehrveranstaltung über Philosophie der Biologie an der Hochschule für Philosophie in München.
