Pressestimmen


“This book collects eight essays … . there is much to be learnt from this collection for the reader who is prepared to make the effort to interrogate Fenstad’s thoughts … provided him with a deep appreciation of the role of mathematical modeling in the development of scientific knowledge. … As for who the interested reader might be, I see four potential candidates: well-educated lay people … philosophers of mathematics and philosophers of science … .” (Julian C. Cole, Philosophia Mathematica, July 9, 2022)
