What We Are Reading Today: New Directions in Philosophy of Mathematics by Thomas Tymoczko

The traditional debate among philosophers of mathematics is whether there is an external mathematical reality, something out there to be discovered, or whether mathematics is the product of the human mind. This provocative book, now available in a revised and expanded paperback edition, goes beyond foundationalist questions to offer what has been called a 'postmodern' assessment of the philosophy of mathematics — one that addresses issues of theoretical importance in terms of mathematical experience.
