Papanicolaou, Andrew C. and Pete A. Y. Gunter, eds. Bergson and Modern Thought: Towards a Unified Science. London: Harwood Academic, 1987.

Abstract

This book examines the ideas of a man whose profoundly original thinking often proved baffling to the best minds of his day. It demonstrates the striking kinship between developments in modern physics and Bergson's own work on intuition, determinism, and the consciousness of the observer. Taking as a starting point the schism between physics and the life sciences, the contributors follow the diverse paths of Bergson's thought towards a restoration of epistemological unity. Scientists, philosophers, psychologists, and students of general science will find this to be a timely and thought-provoking volume.
