We have attempted to give approximately equal treatment to the three subjects: history, philosophy and mathematics. History We must emphasize that this is not a scholarly account of the history of mathematics, but rather an attempt to teach some good mathematics in a historical context. Since neither of the authors is a professional historian, we have made liberal use of secondary sources. We have tried to give ref cited facts and opinions. However, considering that this text erences for developed by repeated revisions from lecture notes of two courses given by one of us over a 25 year period, some attributions may have been lost. We could not resist retelling some amusing anecdotes, even when we suspect that they have no proven historical basis. As to the mathematicians listed in our account, we admit to being colour and gender blind; we have not attempted a balanced distribution of the mathematicians listed to meet today‘s standards of political co | 出版日期 | Textbook 1995 | 关键词 | History of Mathematics; Renaissance; education; mathematics; philosophy of mathematics; physics; propositi | 版次 | 1 | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-1-4612-0803-7 | isbn_softcover | 978-1-4612-6906-9 | isbn_ebook | 978-1-4612-0803-7Series ISSN 0172-6056 Series E-ISSN 2197-5604 | issn_series | 0172-6056 | copyright | Springer Science+Business Media New York 1995 |
