Palavras-chave:
History os mathematics. Mathematics reasoing. Gootlob FregeResumo
We review Danielle Macbeth’s book Realizing Reason, published by Oxford University Press in 2014. This extensive book is composed by nine chapters in which Macbeth critically presents the development of mathematical practices in the Western world – from its founding in Ancient Greece’s diagrammatic practices to the apogee of mathematical logic in the nineteenth and twentieth-centuries – while offering a revaluation of its present stage by means of a reconsideration of Gottlob Frege’s philosophical contributions. In this review, we present a summary of each chapter’s contents and make general considerations about them.Downloads
