  • Beautiful Structures

    The Aesthetics of Mathematical Physics and the Art of Creation

    de Charles Pickles ...
    Beautiful Structures argues that structure, mathematics, aesthetics, teleology, and personhood belong together rather than existing as separate domains requiring subsequent integration.

Mathematics, on this account, is not ... Leer más

  • Out of Time

    A Philosophical Study of Timelessness

    de Samuel Baron, Kristie Miller, Jonathan Tallant ...
