Reviews

This book charts the rich and varied philosophical background against which mathematical logic developed. - Peter Simons, Trinity College Dublin

""This volume is a testament to the fertility of taking the work of 19th century logicians seriously. While not too technical for an advanced undergraduate, those who stand to benefit most from its varied insights into historiography and the pre-analytic period are at the graduate level and beyond."" – Notre Dame Philosophical Reviews ""This book charts the rich and varied philosophical background against which mathematical logic developed."" – Peter Simons, Trinity College Dublin
