Description

Product Description This volume contains ten papers that have been collected by the Canadian Society for the History and Philosophy of Mathematics/Société canadienne d'histoire et de philosophie des mathématiques. It showcases rigorously reviewed contemporary scholarship on an interesting variety of topics in the history and philosophy of mathematics from the seventeenth century to the modern era. The volume begins with an exposition of the life and work of Professor Boleslaw Sobociński. It then moves on to cover a collection of topics about twentieth century philosophy of mathematics, including Fred Sommers' creation of Traditional Formal Logic and Alexander Grothedieck's work as a starting point for discussing analogies between commutative algebra and algebraic geometry. Continuing the focus on the philosophy of mathematics, the next selections discuss the mathematization of biology, and also address the study of numerical cognition. The volume moves to discussing various aspects of mathematics education including Charles Davies' early book on the teaching of mathematics and the use of Gaussian Lemniscates in the classroom. Lastly, a collection of papers on the history of mathematics in the nineteenth century close out the volume, presenting a discussion of Gauss' "Allegemeine Theorie des Erdmagnetismus" and a comparison of the geometric works of Desargues and La Hire. Written by leading scholars in the field, these papers are accessible not only to mathematicians and students of the history and philosophy of mathematics, but also to anyone with a general interest in mathematics.
