Author: Gottlob Frege
Publisher: John Wiley & Sons
ISBN: 0631126945
Category : Mathematics
Languages : en
Pages : 146
Book Description
A philosophical discussion of the concept of number In the book, The Foundations of Arithmetic: A Logico-Mathematical Enquiry into the Concept of Number, Gottlob Frege explains the central notions of his philosophy and analyzes the perspectives of predecessors and contemporaries. The book is the first philosophically relevant discussion of the concept of number in Western civilization. The work went on to significantly influence philosophy and mathematics. Frege was a German mathematician and philosopher who published the text in 1884, which seeks to define the concept of a number. It was later translated into English. This is the revised second edition.

Philosophy and Geometry
Author: L. Magnani
Publisher: Springer Science & Business Media
ISBN: 9401096228
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 284
Book Description
Philosophers have studied geometry since ancient times. Geometrical knowledge has often played the role of a laboratory for the philosopher's conceptual experiments dedicated to the ideation of powerful theories of knowledge. Lorenzo Magnani's new book Philosophy and Geometry illustrates the rich intrigue of this fascinating story of human knowledge, providing a new analysis of the ideas of many scholars (including Plato, Proclus, Kant, and Poincaré), and discussing conventionalist and neopositivist perspectives and the problem of the origins of geometry. The book also ties together the concerns of philosophers of science and cognitive scientists, showing, for example, the connections between geometrical reasoning and cognition as well as the results of recent logical and computational models of geometrical reasoning. All the topics are dealt with using a novel combination of both historical and contemporary perspectives. Philosophy and Geometry is a valuable contribution to the renaissance of research in the field.

The Origin of the Logic of Symbolic Mathematics
Author: Burt C. Hopkins
Publisher: Indiana University Press
ISBN: 0253005272
Category : Philosophy
Languages : en
Pages : 593
Book Description
Burt C. Hopkins presents the first in-depth study of the work of Edmund Husserl and Jacob Klein on the philosophical foundations of the logic of modern symbolic mathematics. Accounts of the philosophical origins of formalized concepts—especially mathematical concepts and the process of mathematical abstraction that generates them—have been paramount to the development of phenomenology. Both Husserl and Klein independently concluded that it is impossible to separate the historical origin of the thought that generates the basic concepts of mathematics from their philosophical meanings. Hopkins explores how Husserl and Klein arrived at their conclusion and its philosophical implications for the modern project of formalizing all knowledge.
