The viewpoints that serve this purpose included the foundational ideas of working mathematicians, such as Kronecker, Dedekind, Borel and the early Hilbert, and the development of notions like model and modelling, arbitrary function, completeness, and non-Archimedean structures. The philosophers discussed include not only the household names in logic, but also Husserl, Wittgenstein and Ramsey. Needless to say, such logically-oriented thinkers as Frege, Russell and Gödel are not entirely neglected, either. \u003cbr\u003e \u003cem\u003eAudience\u003c\/em\u003e: Everybody interested in the philosophy and\/or history of mathematics will find this book interesting, giving frequently novel insights. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Jaakko Hintikka\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 9048145546\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9789048145546\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Springer\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 11\/16\/2010\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 460\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.48lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.21h x 6.14w x 0.97d","brand":"Jaakko Hintikka","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":47930958086399,"sku":"9789048145546","price":219.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_6c53a2fc-29ba-43bd-8ffe-937a3a8f1458.jpg?v=1766345466","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/from-dedekind-to-gzidel-jaakko-hintikka-9789048145546","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
