Mathematics from the Structural Point of View
Revue Internationale de Philosophie 42 (4):400-424 (1988)
Abstract
This paper is a nontechnical exposition of the author's view that mathematics is a science of patterns and that mathematical objects are positions in patterns. the new elements in this paper are epistemological, i.e., first steps towards a postulational theory of the genesis of our knowledge of patternsLinks
