In “A Concept of Organism, Emergent and Resultant” (1926-7), C. Lloyd Morgan showed that Alfred North Whitehead integrated organic theory and emergent evolution. Building on Morgan’s insights, this study clarifies the relationship between organic theory and emergent evolution. It particularly examines Lawrence Joseph Henderson’s concept of the fitness of the environment, which enabled Whitehead to expand the concept of the organism from living organisms to the entire cosmos. This perspective allows for a coherent explanation of the universe. Morgan argued that the integration of organic theory with emergent evolution provides a systematic framework for understanding hierarchical relations, which emerge through the process of emergent evolution. This study explores how Morgan’s perspectives can be identified in Whitehead’s philosophy, thereby elucidating the core of Whitehead’s Philosophy of Organism.
