New Shapes of Reality (1968) examines the works and thoughts of A.N. Whitehead, a major philosopher of great originality whose work touches all our preoccupations – but who fell out of favour and became rather obscure. This book encourages a Whitehead revival, and stresses a point of importance to any who wish to understand this great modern philosopher – there is more than one way of looking at the universe. You can see things either as material existing in space, or as events which create their own conditions as they come and go. The exploration of the latter prospect is the true excitement to be found in Whitehead.

About the Author(s)
Alfred Ernest Jones, FRCP MRCS (1 January 1879 – 11 February 1958) was a Welsh neurologist and psychoanalyst. A lifelong friend and colleague of Sigmund Freud from their first meeting in 1908, he became his official biographer. Jones was the first English-speaking practitioner of psychoanalysis and became its leading exponent in the English-speaking world. As President of both the International Psychoanalytical Association and the British Psycho-Analytical Society in the 1920s and 1930s, Jones exercised a formative influence in the establishment of their organisations, institutions and publications.
