Process Philosophy

In his new book, Bart Nooteboom has once again excellently succeeded in enriching and questioning existing insights in his own discipline of science, economics, on the basis of insights gained in other scientific disciplines. His book is a wonderful example of how interdisciplinarity enriches both economics and the sciences that help this discipline to sharpen questions. Nooteboom shows very well that economists also help practitioners of other scientific disciplines to ask more precise questions about themes that play a role in their own discipline. - Paul van Geest, Full Professor of Economics and Theology at the Erasmus School of Philosophy (Erasmus University Rotterdam); Full Professor of Church History and History of Theology at Tilburg University; Visiting Professor of the Faculty of Theology of the Catholic University of Leuven Bart Nooteboom has made award-winning contributions to our understanding of trust, learning, cognition, governance and innovation. In this exciting new book, Nooteboom weaves these threads together by offering a fresh philosophical look at the linguistic, epistemic and ethical foundations of the underlying social processes. Process Philosophy: A Synthesis is essential reading for social scientists and organisation theorists of all stripes. - David Gindis, Senior Lecturer in Economics, University of Hertfordshire, UK
