Gnomes in the Fog: The Reception of Brouwer's Intuitionism in the 1920s

Více o knize

"The book includes the precursors to and the development of intuitionism, as well as the foundational debate itself. After a general overview of the debate, the analysis centers on two main issues: the question of mathematical existence and the status of logic. Finally, the cultural context of the debate is taken into account."--Jacket.
