Here are a few of Whitehead's characterizations:
" a complex unity, whose ingredients involve all reality beyond itself, restricted under the limitation of its pattern of aspects"
". . . a function of unification of a plurality of things which are otherthan \are other than [itself\]"
". . . an activity, organising a real togetherness of alien things"
All quotations are from SMW: 216 f.
