Realism in Mathematics
ISBN: 9780198240358 / Angielski / Miękka / 1992 / 216 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Mathematicians tend to think of themselves as scientists investigating the features of real mathematical things, and the wildly successful application of mathematics in the physical sciences reinforces this picture of mathematics as an objective study. For philosophers, however, this realism about mathematics raises serious questions: What are mathematical things? Where are they? How do we know about them? Offering a scrupulously fair treatment of both mathematical and philosophical concerns, Penelope Maddy here delineates and defends a novel version of mathematical realism. She answers the...

ISBN: 9781843105305 / Angielski / Miękka / 2011 / 144 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych.

The Logical Must: Wittgenstein on Logic
ISBN: 9780199391752 / Angielski / Twarda / 2014 / 152 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. The Logical Must is an examination of Ludwig Wittgenstein's philosophy of logic, early and late, undertaken from an austere naturalistic perspective Penelope Maddy has called "Second Philosophy." The Second Philosopher is a humble but tireless inquirer who begins her investigation of the world with ordinary perceptual beliefs, moves from there to empirical generalizations, then to deliberate experimentation, and eventually to theory formation and confirmation. She takes this same approach to logical truth, locating its ground in simple worldly structures and our knowledge of it in...

Second Philosophy: A Naturalistic Method
ISBN: 9780199566242 / Angielski / Miękka / 2009 / 460 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Many philosophers these days consider themselves naturalists, but it's doubtful any two of them intend the same position by the term. In this book, Penelope Maddy describes and practices a particularly austere form of naturalism called "Second Philosophy." Without a definitive criterion for what counts as "science" and what doesn't, Second Philosophy can't be specified directly - "trust only the methods of science " or some such thing - so Maddy proceeds instead by illustrating the behaviors of an idealized inquirer she calls the "Second Philosopher." This Second Philosopher begins from...

Naturalism in Mathematics
ISBN: 9780198235736 / Angielski / Twarda / 1998 / 264 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Naturalism in Mathematics investigates how the most fundamental assumptions of mathematics can be justified. One prevalent philosophical approach to the problem--realism--is examined and rejected in favor of another approach--naturalism. Penelope Maddy defines this naturalism, explains the motivation for it, and shows how it can be successfully applied in set theory. Her clear, original treatment of this fundamental issue is informed by current work in both philosophy and mathematics, and will be accessible and enlightening to readers from both disciplines.

Defending the Axioms: On the Philosophical Foundations of Set Theory
ISBN: 9780199671489 / Angielski / Miękka / 2013 / 162 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Mathematics depends on proofs, and proofs must begin somewhere, from some fundamental assumptions. For nearly a century, the axioms of set theory have played this role, so the question of how these axioms are properly judged takes on a central importance. Approaching the question from a broadly naturalistic or second-philosophical point of view, Defending the Axioms isolates the appropriate methods for such evaluations and investigates the ontological and epistemological backdrop that makes them appropriate. In the end, a new account of the objectivity of mathematics emerges, one refreshingly...
