He wrote on algebra, logic, foundations of mathematics, philosophy of science, physics, metaphysics, and education. Whitehead's process philosophy sees events as the basic constituents of the world, rather than material particles. His system of thought profoundly influenced the development of 20th-century philosophy. Despite his contributions, his works were overshadowed by those of his student Bertrand Russell. However, in recent years, there has been a renewed interest in Whitehead's ideas, particularly in his process philosophy.

Alfred North Whitehead 是一位英国数学家和哲学家，著述涉及代数、逻辑、数学基础、科学哲学、物理学、形而上学及教育领域。他的过程哲学将事件视为世界的基本构成要素，而非物质粒子。这种思想体系对20世纪哲学的发展产生了深远影响。尽管如此，他的作品曾被其学生伯特兰·罗素的著作所掩盖。然而，近年来，人们对怀特黑德的思想，尤其是其过程哲学，重新产生了兴趣。
