Philosophy Of Mathematics Stephan Körner Hardcover Dust Jacket Good 1960 HCDJ
Dust jacket discolored but book itself is unread. Spine never cracked. Lots of spots over the dust jacket & inside front cover, please see photos. Inscribed by original owner on in the inside front cover.
Concise, accessible sketches of the views of Plato, Aristotle, Leibniz, and Kant highlight this study of the general structure and foundation of pure and applied mathematics. Author Stephan Körner dedicates two chapters apiece -- one expository and one critical -- to each of the three main modern schools of thought on mathematical philosophy: the formalists, the logicists, and the intuitionists. After critically examining the propositions and theories of each philosophy, Körner presents a new position concerning the relation between mathematical theories, empirical data, and philosophical presuppositions.
