This resulted in the most famous work of process philosophy, Alfred North Whitehead's Process and Reality, 1929, a work which continues that begun by Hegel but describing a more complex and fluid dynamic ontology.

Even Tanaka, who suggests that G disagrees with experimental findings, admits that his work does not actually refute Whitehead's formulation.

A comprehensive appraisal of Whitehead's work is difficult because Whitehead left no Nachlass ; his family carried out his instructions that all of his papers be destroyed after his death.

In poetry, the work and thought of American Charles Olson was strongly influenced by Whitehead's concepts.

The main tenets of Whitehead's metaphysics were summarized in his most accessible work, Adventures of Ideas ( 1933 ), where he also defines his conceptions of beauty, truth, art, adventure, and peace.

On the other hand, many Whitehead scholars read his work as providing a philosophical foundation for the social liberalism of the New Liberal movement that was prominent throughout Whitehead's adult life.

Whitehead's early work sought to unify quaternions ( due to Hamilton ), Grassmann's Ausdehnungslehre, and Boole's algebra of logic.

Charles Hartshorne saw him as a predecessor on his and Alfred North Whitehead's philosophy and regretted that Fechner's philosophical work had been neglected for so long.

His father, Frederick C. Beach, contributed thousands of dollars to support Whitehead's work with Stanley Beach's airplane design.

When Whitehead told Stanley Beach that his design was faulty and could not work Stanley Beach got angry and sent some men who took the unfinished airplane away from Whitehead's workshop.

Opinions about Whitehead's work and accomplishments differ sharply between two groups of researchers, with the mainstream viewpoint dismissive or very doubtful.

Contemporary experienced amateur aviation researchers Nick Engler and Louis Chmiel dismiss Whitehead's work and its influence, even if new evidence is discovered showing that he flew before the Wright brothers:

Much of Whitehead's work was well received: his tragedy The Roman Father was successfully produced by David Garrick in 1750, Creusa, Queen of Athens ( 1754 ) was also praised and his comedies The School for Lovers ( 1762 ) and The Trip to Scotland ( 1770 ) were successful.

Whitehead's work in Trieste was noticed by the owners of Fonderia Metalli, a metal foundry in the nearby city of Fiume ( today Rijeka, Croatia ).

Whitehead's early work is discussed in Kneebone ( 1963: chpt.

Hodge, a staff clerk, look over Whitehead's Number 21 aircraft, then on public display in Atlantic City, New Jersey, where Hodge was staying.

He described the arc of Whitehead's career as a retrogression, that it moved from supposed early successes to less ambitious experiments, and then descended further to unlikely designs and public failure.

In Whitehead's Science and the Modern World ( 1925 ), he noted that the human intuitions and experiences of science, aesthetics, ethics, and religion influence the worldview of a community, but that in the last several centuries science dominates Western culture.

A number of experimental rocket-propelled torpedoes were tried soon after Whitehead's invention but they were not successful.

A route through the underground chambers proceeds, from the Entrance Hall, to the Steward's Chamber and Whitehead's Cave, through Lord Sandwich's Circle ( named after John Montagu, 4th Earl of Sandwich ), Franklin's Cave ( named after Benjamin Franklin, a friend of Dashwood who visited West Wycombe ), the Banqueting Hall ( allegedly the largest man-made chalk cavern in the world ), the Triangle, to the Miner's Cave ; and finally, across a subterranean river named the Styx, lies the final cave, the Inner Temple, where the meetings of the Hellfire Club were held, and which is said to lie 300 feet ( 90 metres ) directly beneath the church on top of West Wycombe hill.

O ’ Dwyer supported his opinion by asserting that Beach became a " politician " who was " rarely missing an opportunity to mingle with the Wright tide that had turned against Whitehead, notably after Whitehead's death in 1927.

Whitehead's own 1911 studies of the vertical flight problem resulted in a 60-bladed helicopter, which, unmanned, lifted itself off the ground.

Claims for Whitehead's best-known reported manned powered flights depend largely on a newspaper article that said he achieved the feat in Connecticut in August 1901, and on an unsigned Scientific American article in September 1903 describing Whitehead making short flights low to the ground in a motorized triplane originally designed as a glider.

The article was published on 18 August 1901, and named two witnesses to Whitehead's reported early morning flight, Andrew Cellie and James Dickie.

An article in Air Enthusiast countered by saying that the description Dickie gave of the airplane did not match Whitehead's Number 21.

The Scientific American article by Beach described Whitehead's machine as a " novel flying machine.

The article did not state Whitehead had flown and was published before Whitehead's reported flight of 14 August 1901.

Aviation historians dismiss all of Whitehead's claims to powered flight.

Aviation historians dismiss all of Whitehead's claims to powered flight.

History by Contract, the book co-authored by O ' Dwyer and Randolph, argued that the agreement unfairly suppressed recognition of Whitehead's achievements.

Whitehead's classical statement is a set of antithetical statements that attempt to avoid self-contradiction by shifting them from a set of oppositions into a contrast:

Whitehead's thinking here has given rise to process theology, whose prominent advocates include Charles Hartshorne, John B. Cobb, Jr., and Hans Jonas, who was also influenced by the non-theological philosopher Martin Heidegger.

Like Whitehead's God, especially as elaborated in J. J. Gibson's perceptual psychology emphasizing affordances, by ordering the relevance of eternal objects ( especially the cognitions of other such actors ), the world becomes.

The first recorded launch of torpedoes from a torpedo boat ( which itself was launched from a torpedo boat tender ) in an actual battle was by Russian admiral Stepan Makarov on January 16, 1878, who used self-propelled Whitehead's torpedoes against a Turkish armed ship Intibah during the Russo-Turkish War of 1877-78.

In 1738 the publication of Paul Whitehead's Manners, voted scandalous by the House of Lords, led to a short imprisonment.

" Whitehead's stated control method – a shifting of body weight – was said by Trimble to be insufficient to control a powered aircraft, and the supposed charcoal-fired steam powerplant could not have been strong enough to lift itself off the ground.

Whitehead's business practices were unsophisticated and he was sued by a customer, resulting in a threat that his tools and equipment would be seized.

Reports of Whitehead's August 1901 flight in Connecticut were noticed by the Smithsonian Institution.

Statements obtained by Stella Randolph in the 1930s from two of Whitehead's workers, Cecil Steeves and Anton Pruckner, claimed that the Wright brothers visited Whitehead's shop a year or two before their 1903 flights.

Interest in Whitehead's engines is indicated by the recollections of his daughter Rose, who said her father received numerous orders for them and even declined as many as 50 orders in a single day because he was too busy.

The names of the four " founding fathers " of modern Key West were given to main arteries of the island when it was first platted in 1829 by William Adee Whitehead, John Whitehead's younger brother.

Abdullah, Mr. Whitehead's sergeant of askaris, killed by the lions.

His ideas were a significant development of the idea of panpsychism, also known as panexperientialism, due to Whitehead ’ s emphasis on experience, though the term itself was first applied to Whitehead's philosophy by David Ray Griffin many years later.

is the direct limit of the GL ( n ), which embeds in GL ( n + 1 ) as the upper left block matrix, and the commutator subgroup agrees with the group generated by elementary matrices E ( A )= GL ( A ), by Whitehead's lemma.
