Exploration of Alfred North Whiteheads influence on Maurice MerleauPontys ontology of nature.This is the first booklength account of how Maurice MerleauPonty used certain texts by Alfred North Whitehead to develop an ontology based on nature, and how he could have used other Whitehead texts that he did not know in order to complete his last ontology. This account is enriched by several of MerleauPontys unpublished writings not previously available in English, by the first detailed treatment of certain works by F. W. J. Schelling in the course of showing how they exerted a substantial influence on both MerleauPonty and Whitehead, and by the first extensive discussion of MerleauPontys interest in the Stoicss notion of the twofold logos the logos endiathetos and the logos proforikos. This book provides a thorough exploration of the consonance between these two philosophers in their mutual desire to overcome various bifurcations of nature, and of nature from spirit, that haunted philosophy and science since the seventeenth century.Nature and Logos is one of the most important works on MerleauPontys philosophy to appear recently. The authors erudition and painstaking scholarship inform their original perspective. This is an indispensable work, a tourdeforce offering another important piece to the puzzle of understanding the sometimes enigmatic later work of MerleauPonty. Duane H. Davis, editor of MerleauPontys Later Works and Their Practical Implications: The Dehiscence of ResponsibilityThis represents a definite advance in philosophical scholarship. The book adds to our interest and understanding of MerleauPonty and Whitehead. Robert Daud, Pasadena City College
