Found among his papers, this book combines five chapters published here for the first time with revisions and expansions of previously published material. Hartshorne articulates and defends his \"neoclassical metaphysics\" as an enterprise related to but independent of empirical science, addressing a variety of topics, including the problem of other minds (including nonhuman ones), the competencies of science, the nature of God, the meaning of modal terms, the ontological status of universals, and the metaphysical grounding of political freedom. While Hartshorne is widely known as a process philosopher, \u003ci\u003eCreative Experiencing\u003c\/i\u003e also shows him in dialogue with the wider currents of both analytic philosophy and phenomenology. The book includes his clearest account of his appropriation of phenomenology, the most succinct presentation of his analysis of time's asymmetry and its relation to causality, and his fullest statement concerning the meaning of future tense statements.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Charles Hartshorne\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1438436661\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781438436661\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e State University of New York Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 07\/02\/2012\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 176\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.85lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.90h x 5.90w x 0.70d","brand":"Charles Hartshorne","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48453630361855,"sku":"9781438436661","price":33.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_0fd2b7a1-eaf9-4e84-b941-c965df300931.jpg?v=1777301296","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/creative-experiencing-charles-hartshorne-9781438436661","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
