Process theology or process thought is a school of thought influenced by the metaphysical process philosophy of Alfred North Whitehead ( 1861 – 1947 ) and further developed by Charles Hartshorne ( 1897 – 2000 ).

For both Whitehead and Hartshorne, it is an essential attribute of God to be fully involved in and affected by temporal processes, an idea that conflicts with traditional forms of theism that hold God to be in all respects non-temporal ( eternal ), unchanging ( immutable ), and unaffected by the world ( impassible ).

In this sense theology influenced by Hegel is process theology just as much as that influenced by Alfred North Whitehead.

For Whitehead, besides its temporal generation by the actual entities which are its contributory causes, a process may be considered as a concrescence of abstract ingredient eternal objects.

Russell and Whitehead attempted to solve these problems in Principia Mathematica by putting statements into a hierarchy of types, wherein a statement cannot refer to itself, but only to statements lower in the hierarchy.

The first working prototype of the modern self-propelled torpedo was created by a commission placed by Giovanni Luppis (), an Austrian naval officer from Fiume ( now called Rijeka ), a port city of the Austro-Hungarian Monarchy ( modern Croatia ), and Robert Whitehead, an English engineer who was the manager of a town factory.

In 1864, Luppis presented Whitehead with the plans of the salvacoste ( coastsaver ), a floating weapon driven by ropes from the land, and made a contract with him in order to perfect the invention.
