EBOOK After Godel:Platonism and Rationalism in Mathematics and Logic
Opis
Platonism and Rationalism in Mathematics and Logic
Richard Tieszen analyzes, develops, and defends the writings of Kurt Gdel (1906-1978) on the philosophy and foundations of mathematics and logic. Gdel's relation to the work of Plato, Leibniz, Husserl, and Kant is examined, and a new type of platonic rationalism that requires rational intuition, called 'constituted platonism', is proposed.
