The study considers Whitehead's conception of the Reason (articulated especially in his The Function of Reason) as a regulative factor in every aesthetic experience along with Whitehead's opinion of the basic aesthetic character of every experience. These thoughts are compared with contemporary findings of neuroaesthetics and the Reception aesthetics, in order to demonstrate how stimulating Whitehead's philosophy is even for the present-day aesthetics.

This text concentrates on the investigation of relations of two books of Alfred North Whitehead: Process and Reality and Function of Reason, both being published in the same year 1929. Author of the text first exhibits Whitehead's conception of method of speculative philosophy as it is presented on the initial pages of Process and Reality. He points out at Whitehead's rejection of mathematical axiomatic method and position of rigid empiricism as appropriate methods of construction of philosophical scheme and shows Whitehead's own philosophical method: method of descriptive generalization, which can be shortly summed up as imaginative construction of basic speculative scheme which is based on former empirical observations and is subsequently tested by new empirical observations. It is shown that Whitehead does not presents in Process and Reality the process of imaginative construction of his philosophy. One phase of Whitehead's method of descriptive generalization is therefore missing in Process and Reality. It is argued that this missing phase of descriptive generalization can be found in Function of Reason.
