Elements of Contemporary Process Philosophical Theory of Education and Learning


First Edition

It is expedient, timely and even urgent to question again Whitehead's approach to education and learning.

It is expedient, because education remains (one of) the most important cultural factors. It is timely, because of the need to investigate the efficacy of the process philosophical approach in the context of the growing influence of artificial intelligence. It is urgent, because artificial intelligence gains traction in the context of a global systemic crisis.
