The work is concerned with Whitehead's dipolar theism, which, among other things, makes a case for real relations and contingency in God. It undertakes this task using the methodological tools of analysis and hermeneutics. Alfred North Whitehead, in his works, especially Process and Reality, makes some strong statements that underscore and reiterate the creative nature and freedom of actual entities. For him, this is simply a given, a fact of experience. This affirmation of the self-creative nature of all levels of actualities permeates and influences his process philosophic system. He moves, therefore, to posit a dipolar theism, which he feels does justice to the reality of self-determination of actual occasions, a movement that favors the affirmation of the real relationship between God and the world from both perspectives of the world and God. Maintaining this dipolarity in God, he establishes that God whose nature is both primordial and consequential-superject and the world are, in some sense, infinite and in another finite. God, in this scheme, would, in some sense, be characterized by contingency. This position evidently counters Thomistic-classical theodicy which denies any real relation between God and creatures from the standpoint of God. He writes about a dipolar God and creativity that is the ultimate for which God and actual entities are its creatures. In doing this, there appears to be a direct contrast between what God within the classical system can accomplish and what God within the process system cannot do, and in this case, an undermining, at least in the context of classical philosophy, of the classical notion of God. Conversely, there is also the disparity between what the process actual occasion can achieve and what the classical creatures cannot do. With this, an undermining of the process of actual entities. Thus, in classical philosophy, there is an asymmetry in the divinecosmic connection, while in Whitehead and process philosophy, the relationship is symmetrical. It is with this God-world relationship that the work is concerned and is poised to evaluate this from the standpoints of Whitehead and classical philosophies.
