And as the essays bring out, what a period it .was: of both ferment and synergy, heat and light! Most of the .giants - especially Helmholtz, Hertz, Poincare, Hilbert, Einstein and .Weyl - are here: engaging not just in physics and mathematics but also in .philosophy, often together, or with figures like Schlick. The editors are .to be congratulated on a major contribution to our understanding of one .of the most complex but fertile periods in the history of all three .disciplines...- Jeremy Butterfield, University of Cambridge. ...This stimulating volume covers a wide range of topics which are of direct interest to anyone who thinks about the curious relation between mathematics and the natural world.
