Critics Review

“For breadth of coverage, Jacquette’s anthology of recent work in philosophy of mathematics has few if any rivals. Many of Jacquette’s selections are important for understanding current debates, and he provides helpful introductory discussions. This collection will very likely become a standard resource for students and teachers of this field.” Sanford Shieh, Wesleyan University
