Abstract
Whitehead's theory of relativity is outlined within the context of a two-content philosophy of science. I argue that all theories have both an explanatory and predictive content. I proceed to contrast Whitehead's theory with Einstein's. After a full description of Whitehead's explanation is given, I examine a debate concerning relativity physics and Whitehead's doctrine of God. The participants in the debate neglect Whitehead's alternative discussing the issues within an Einsteinian context. I conclude that process philosophers should re-examine the issues in light of Whitehead's alternative. [Abstract from The Philosopher’s Index]
