Northward, Alfred!
"For us the red glow of the sunset should be as much part of nature as are the molecules and electrical waves by which men of science would explain the phenomenon."
-Whitehead (1920/2004, 29), found at The Pinocchio Theory
A man influential in the history of process philosophy, formulator of point-free geometry (don't know that I get this one necessarily, and definitely not the equations), also the fallacy of misplaced concreteness, which sounds very much like reification (not the Marxian kind). I'd like to read Process and Philosophy, maybe, if my plate weren't filled beyond the point of what could choke a man, and if I needed further arguments from those realms.
