UR - https://www.unicat.be/uniCat?func=search&query=sysid:77873954 AB - Reason's Nearest Kin is a critical examination of the most exciting period there has been in the philosophical study of the properties of the natural numbers, from the 1880s to the 1930s. Reassessing the brilliant innovations of Frege, Russell, Wittgenstein, and others, which transformed philosophy as well as our understanding of mathematics, Michael Potter places arithmetic at the interface between experience, language, thought, and the world.
