Labyrinth of Thought: A History of Set Theory and Its Role in Modern Mathematics
ISBN: 9783764383497 / Angielski / Miękka / 2007 / 496 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 20 dni roboczych. Labyrinth of Thought discusses the emergence and development of set theory and the set-theoretic approach to mathematics during the period 1850-1940. Rather than focusing on the pivotal figure of Georg Cantor, it analyzes his work and the emergence of transfinite set theory within the broader context of the rise of modern mathematics. The text has a tripartite structure. Part 1, The Emergence of Sets within Mathematics, surveys the initial motivations for a mathematical notion of a set within several branches of the discipline (geometry, algebra, algebraic number theory, real and...

Mathematical Knowledge and the Interplay of Practices
ISBN: 9780691167510 / Angielski / Twarda / 2015 / 360 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 18-20 dni roboczych. This book presents a new approach to the epistemology of mathematics by viewing mathematics as a human activity whose knowledge is intimately linked with practice. Charting an exciting new direction in the philosophy of mathematics, Jose Ferreiros uses the crucial idea of a continuum to provide an account of the development of mathematical knowledge that reflects the actual experience of doing math and makes sense of the perceived objectivity of mathematical results. Describing a historically oriented, agent-based philosophy of mathematics, Ferreiros shows how the mathematical...
