Hardcover. Condición: new. Hardcover. Generality is a key value in scientific discourses and practices. Throughout history, it has received a variety of meanings and of uses. This collection of original essays aims to inquire into this diversity. Through case studies taken from the history of mathematics, physics and the life sciences, the book provides evidence of different ways of understanding the general in various contexts. It aims at showing how collectives have valued generality and how they haveworked with specific types of "general" entities, procedures, and arguments.The books connects history and philosophy of mathematics and the sciences at the intersection of twoof the most fruitful contemporary lines of research: historical epistemology, in which values (e.g. "objectivity", "accuracy") are studied from a historical viewpoint; and the philosophy of scientific practice, in which conceptual developments are seen as embedded in networks of social, instrumental, and textual practices. Each chapter provides a self-contained case-study, with a clear exposition of the scientific content at stake. The collection covers a wide range of scientific domains - withan emphasis on mathematics - and historical periods. It thus allows a comparative perspective which suggests a non-linear pattern for a history of generality. The introductory chapter spells out thekey issues and points to the connections between the chapters. This collection of original essays aims to inquire into the diversity of Generality.

Taschenbuch. Condición: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - This book brings together 10 experiments which introduce historical perspectives into mathematics classrooms for 11 to 18-year-olds. The authors suggest that students should not only read ancient texts, but also should construct, draw and manipulate. The different chapters refer to ancient Greek, Indian, Chinese and Arabic mathematics as well as to contemporary mathematics. Students are introduced to well-known mathematicians-such as Gottfried Leibniz and Leonard Euler-as well as to less famous practitioners and engineers. Always, there is the attempt to associate the experiments with their scientific and cultural contexts.One of the main values of history is to show that the notions and concepts we teach were invented to solve problems. The different chapters of this collection all have, as their starting points, historic problems-mathematical or not. These are problems of exchanging and sharing, of dividing figures and volumes as well as engineers' problems, calculations, equations and congruence. The mathematical reasoning which accompanies these actions is illustrated by the use of drawings, folding, graphical constructions and the production of machines.…

Taschenbuch. Condición: Neu. Neuware - Ce recueil regroupe des textes mathématiques, publiés dans les années 1920, qui posent les bases des conceptions actuelles dans plusieurs branches de cette science: géométrie différentielle (notion de variété, notion de connexion), topologie différentielle (lien entre topologie et courbure, revêtements), théorie des groupes topologiques et de Lie. La plupart d'entre eux sont traduits de l'allemand, parfois de l'anglais: sont ainsi mis à disposition du public francophone deux textes de Hermann Weyl, fondamentaux non seulement pour l'histoire des mathématiques, mais aussi pour l'histoire de la physique, par l'introduction de la notion de jauge dans la recherche d'une théorie unifiée. Chaque texte est accompagné d'une présentation le replaçant dans son contexte historique ou d'extraits plus brefs permettant de l'éclairer. Renaud Chorlay propose donc un corpus fondamental pour qui souhaite mener une réflexion philosophique sur l'approche mathématique de l'espace, ou sur les fondements mathématiques d'une part importante de la physique contemporaine. Cet ouvrage s'intègre au projet éditorial du programme ANR Géométrie et physique à la charnière des XIXe et XXe siècle (UMR 7219 CNRS - Université Paris Diderot).…
