Abstract

The philosophy of mathematics plays a vital role in the mature philosophy of Charles S. Peirce.

This volume collects Peirce's most important writings on the subject, many appearing in print for the first time. Peirce's determination to understand matter, the cosmos, and "the grand design" of the universe remain relevant for contemporary students of science, technology, and symbolic logic.
