Recent developments, however, have given rise to the hope that the distance between constructive and nonstandard mathematics is actually much smaller than it appears. So the time was ripe for the first meeting dedicated simultaneously to both ways of doing mathematics - and to the current and future reunion of these seeming opposites. \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eConsisting of peer-reviewed research and survey articles written on the occasion of such an event, this volume offers views of the continuum from various standpoints. Including historical and philosophical issues, the topics of the contributions range from the foundations, the practice, and the applications of constructive and nonstandard mathematics, to the interplay of these areas and the development of a unified theory. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Peter Schuster\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 9048158850\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9789048158850\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Springer\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 12\/06\/2010\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 329\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.06lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.21h x 6.14w x 0.72d","brand":"Peter Schuster","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48487129874687,"sku":"9789048158850","price":169.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_46f1f94e-d406-4fad-b702-33eec20d2e9f.jpg?v=1778058541","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/reuniting-the-antipodes-constructive-peter-schuster-9789048158850","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
