Mathematics as a Science of Patterns
Resnik, Michael D. (University Distinguished Professor of Philosophy, University Distinguished Professor of Philosophy, University of North Carolina, Chapel Hill)
Expounding theories about the nature of mathematics, and examining mathematics as a science of patterns, the author of this book expresses his commitment to a structuralist philosophy of mathematics. He links this theory to a defence of realism about the metaphysics of mathematics.
