AUTHOR
SUMMARY
Challenging the myth that mathematical objects can be defined into existence, Bigelow here employs Armstrong's metaphysical materialism to cast new light on mathematics. He identifies natural, real, and imaginary numbers and sets with specified physical properties and relations and, by so doing, draws mathematics back from its sterile, abstract exile into the midst of the physical world.Bigelow, John is the author of 'Reality of Numbers A Physicalist's Philosophy of Mathematics' with ISBN 9780198249573 and ISBN 0198249578.
