Mathematics and logic have been central topics of concern since the dawn of philosophy. Since logic is the study of correct reasoning, it is a fundamental branch of epistemology and a priority in any philosophical system. Philosophers have focused on mathematics as a case study for general philosophical issues and for its role in overall knowledge- gathering. Today, philosophy ...(展开全部)

How the concept of proof has enabled the creation of mathematical knowledge The Story of Proof investigates the evolution of the concept of proof―one of the most significant and defining features of mathematical thought―through critical episodes in its history. From the Pythagorean theorem to modern times, and across all major mathematical disciplines, John Stillwell demonstrat...(展开全部)
