商品描述

This monograph addresses the question of the increasing irrelevance of philosophy, which has seen scientists as well as philosophers concluding that philosophy is dead and has dissolved into the sciences. It seeks to answer the question of whether or not philosophy can still be fruitful and what kind of philosophy can be such.

The author argues that from its very beginning philosophy has focused on knowledge and methods for acquiring knowledge. This view, however, has generally been abandoned in the last century with the belief that, unlike the sciences, philosophy makes no observations or experiments and requires only thought. Thus, in order for philosophy to once again be relevant, it needs to return to its roots and focus on knowledge as well as methods for acquiring knowledge.

Accordingly, this book deals with several questions about knowledge that are essential to this view of philosophy, including mathematical knowledge. Coverage examines such issues as the nature of knowledge; plausibility and common sense; knowledge as problem solving; modeling scientific knowledge; mathematical objects, definitions, diagrams; mathematics and reality; and more.

This monograph presents a new approach to philosophy, epistemology, and the philosophy of mathematics. It will appeal to graduate students and researchers with interests in the role of knowledge, the analytic method, models of science, and mathematics and reality.

商品描述(中文翻譯)

這本專著探討了哲學日益無關緊要的問題,科學家和哲學家都認為哲學已經死亡,並已融入科學之中。它試圖回答哲學是否仍然能夠產生成果,以及什麼樣的哲學可以如此。

作者主張,自哲學誕生之初,它就專注於知識及獲取知識的方法。然而,這種觀點在過去一個世紀中普遍被拋棄,因為人們相信,與科學不同,哲學不進行觀察或實驗,只需要思考。因此,為了讓哲學再次變得相關,它需要回歸根本,專注於知識及獲取知識的方法。

因此,本書處理了幾個與知識相關的問題,這些問題對於這種哲學觀點至關重要,包括數學知識。內容涵蓋了知識的本質;可信性和常識;知識作為問題解決;科學知識的建模;數學對象、定義、圖示;數學與現實;等等。

這本專著提出了一種新的哲學、認識論和數學哲學的方法。它將吸引對知識的角色、分析方法、科學模型以及數學與現實感興趣的研究生和研究人員。
