The Philosophy of Mathematics: An Introduction
Stephan Körner
This volume is a thorough introduction to main currents in Philosophy of Mathematics, as they inter-played by the middle of the 20th century. The exposition spreads the pros and cons of each philosophical school on mathematical knowledge. The analysis encompasses both conceptual frameworks and formal examples; complex mathematical dialect is applied with parsimony, without compromising clarity. The book is a good introduction but never a 101 text. It requires some acquaintance and previous maturity for a reader's catching of the core views discussed.
