'''Alfred North Whitehead''' (1861–1947) was a British mathematician, logician and philosopher best known for his work in mathematical logic and the philosophy of science. In collaboration with Bertrand Russell, he co-authored the three-volume ''Principia Mathematica'' (1910, 1912, 1913). Later he was instrumental in pioneering the approach to metaphysics now known as ''process philosophy'', which today has found application in a wide variety of disciplines, including ecology, theology, education, physics, biology, economics, psychology, and media theory, among other areas.

Alfred North Whitehead (1861–1947) was a British mathematician, logician and philosopher best known for his work in mathematical logic and the philosophy of science. In collaboration with Bertrand Russell, he co-authored the three-volume Principia Mathematica (1910, 1912, 1913). Later he was instrumental in pioneering the approach to metaphysics now known as process philosophy, which today has found application in a wide variety of disciplines, including ecology, theology, education, physics, biology, economics, psychology, and media theory, among other areas.
