Maggiori informazioni sul libro

The book delves into the philosophical debate between Platonism and Naturalism, particularly in the context of mathematics. It critically examines the perspectives of notable philosophers like Quine and Maddy, arguing that a Platonist approach is essential for understanding concept acquisition in scientific contexts. Additionally, it presents a unique view of applied mathematics that bolsters the Platonist stance against Naturalist alternatives. This comprehensive exploration not only highlights the mathematical discourse but also illuminates broader philosophical implications of the debate.
