Philosophy Of Mathematics
(Princeton Foundations of Contemporary Philosophy

A sophisticated, original introduction to the philosophy of mathematics from one of its leading thinkers.

Mathematics is a model of precision and objectivity, but it appears distinct from the empirical sciences because it seems to deliver nonexperiential knowledge of a nonphysical reality of numbers, sets, and functions. How can these two aspects of mathematics be reconciled? This concise book provides a systematic, accessible introduction to the field that is trying to answer that question: the philosophy of mathematics.
