The Conception of the Infinite and the Solution of the Mathematical Antinomies [microform]: A Study - Tapa blanda

Sinopsis

George Stuart Fullerton's influential book explores the concept of infinity and its relationship to mathematics and psychology. Fullerton examines the various philosophical and mathematical problems posed by infinity, including the 'antinomies' that arise when one tries to blindly apply mathematical formulas to infinity. He then looks at the ways in which our psychological biases and limitations shape our understanding of the infinite, and the implications this has for mathematics and science. A fascinating and thought-provoking book for anyone interested in the philosophy of mathematics.
