Consciousness and actuality in Whiteheadian ontology
pp. 269-297
Abstract
If cognitive science is the science of cognition, what is cognition? Whitehead's answer is drawn directly from his fundamental ontology: cognition is a special form of what he calls "prehension,' taking more particular forms in conscious perception, thought, imagination and other psychological processes.
