About this book
Reviews
Book is based on his dissertation work, which won the Association for Logic, Language, and Information’s 2011 Beth prize. … Ganesalingam’s work is thoughtful and thought-provoking. He gives an analysis of mathematical language at a depth not previously attempted, and the results are impressive. Beyond that, in the process he achieves the difficult task of bringing new insight to some very old questions in the philosophy of mathematics. I recommend the book to anyone with an interest in those questions.” (Kira Hamman, MAA Reviews, maa.org, May, 2016)
