Thinking about Mathematics : The Philosophy of Mathematics
This unique text by Stewart Shapiro looks at a range of philosophical issues and positions concerning mathematics in four comprehensive sections.The first describes questions and issues about mathematics that have motivated philosophers almost since the beginning of intellectual history.Part II is an historical survey, discussing the role of mathematics in such thinkers as Plato, Aristotle, Kant, and Mill.The third section covers the three major positions, and battle lines, throughout the twentieth century: that mathematics is logic (logicism), that the essence of mathematics is the rule-governed manipulation of characters (formalism), and a revisionist philosophy that focuses on the mental activity of mathematics (intuitionism).Finally, Part IV looks at contemporary positions and work which brings the reader up-to-date on the discipline.Thinking about Mathematics is accessible to those with little background in either mathematics or philosophy.It is aimed at students and professionals in mathematics who have little contact with academic philosophy and at philosophy students and other philosophers who forgot much of their mathematics.

Is the goddess Selene Artemis?
No, the goddess Selene is not Artemis. In Greek mythology, Selene is the goddess of the moon, while Artemis is the goddess of the hunt, wilderness, and childbirth. Although they are both associated with the night and the moon, they are distinct deities with their own unique attributes and roles in mythology. Selene is often depicted as driving a chariot across the night sky, while Artemis is known for her skill in hunting and her association with wild animals.

Business mathematics or pure mathematics?
It ultimately depends on your career goals and interests. Business mathematics focuses on practical applications in business and finance, such as accounting, economics, and statistics. Pure mathematics, on the other hand, delves into theoretical concepts and abstract reasoning, with applications in fields like physics, engineering, and computer science. If you are interested in pursuing a career in business or finance, business mathematics may be more relevant. However, if you are passionate about theoretical concepts and problem-solving, pure mathematics may be a better fit for you.

What do you think, why can mathematics describe nature so well?
Mathematics can describe nature so well because it provides a universal language to express and understand the patterns and relationships found in the natural world. The use of mathematical equations and models allows scientists to quantify and predict natural phenomena, from the motion of celestial bodies to the behavior of subatomic particles. Additionally, the abstract nature of mathematics allows for the development of general principles and theories that can be applied across different fields of science, providing a powerful tool for understanding and explaining the complexities of nature.

What type of mathematics is meant: commercial mathematics or technical mathematics?
The type of mathematics meant in this context is commercial mathematics. Commercial mathematics focuses on practical applications of mathematics in business and finance, such as calculating interest, profit and loss, and managing budgets. It is used in everyday business transactions and financial decision-making. Technical mathematics, on the other hand, is more focused on the theoretical and abstract aspects of mathematics, often used in fields such as engineering, physics, and computer science.
