Abstract: Abstract Alfred North Whitehead (1861–1947), British mathematician, logician and philosopher, rejected the idea that an object can have a simple, spatial or temporary location. Objects, he argued, are abstractions from process. People may treat them as concrete things, but their metaphysical status is that of abstractions. The concepts of process perspective, process thinking, etc., described in this section are much based on Whitehead’s process philosophy.
