Single location, simple location and misplaced concreteness
Review of Metaphysics 7 (2):225-247 (1953)
Abstract
That Whitehead's remarks on simple location entail neither an absolute theory of space-time nor a relativistic one. The evidence for this conclusion, especially in view of Whitehead's own remarks, is very good. The ghosts raised by Emmet and Das are laid.My notes
