First Edition
Soft cover. Condition: Near Fine. No Jacket. 1st Edition. "This seminal collection gathers together many general writings of one of the world's leading historians of mathematics. Organized thematically, these essays ponder the intellectual underpinnings of the field, examine the major topics in the history of mathematics, and recount the bizarre history of pseudomath. Ivor Grattan-Guinness explores how people understand mathematics - the routes of learning they take as they make important discoveries and study mathematical concepts and theories. The essays in the first part of the book discuss the history of mathematics as a field and its central philosophical issues. Those in the next part address the history of mathematics education and its importance to current modes of teaching. In the last section Grattan-Guinness investigates various understudied aspects of math, including numerology, Masonic symbols in classical music, and the links between mathematics and Christianity. This collection includes several essays that are difficult to find anywhere else. All historians of mathematics and students of the field will want a copy of this remarkable resource on their bookshelves. " (Publisher).

Dear Russell, dear Jourdain: a commentary on Russell's logic, based on his correspondence with Philip Jourdain.
Published by New York: Columbia University Press, 1977, 1977
Grattan-Guinness, I. Dear Russell, dear Jourdain: a commentary on Russell's logic, based on his correspondence with Philip Jourdain. New York: Columbia University Press, 1977, 234pp., very good dust-jacket, very good gray cloth, attractive copy. Philip E. B. Jourdain,1879-1919. - Russell's contributions to logic have been discussed hitherto almost entirely from his published writings. This book draws principally on unpublished materials, especially his lengthy correspondence from 1902 to 1919 with Philip Jourdain. Much new information is provided on Russell's unsuccessful attempts to solve the paradoxes, his views on descriptions and existence, his treatment of Cantorian set theory, and the preparation with Whitehead of Principia Mathematics. Jourdain's contributions illustrate the current controversies over the axioms of choice, and also show him partly anticipating some later work by Hausdorff and von Neumann. The book also contains an English translation of a paper in French on the axioms of choice and infinity which Russell published obscurely in 1911, and Jourdain's publication of the visiting card paradox and the first parts of The Philosophy of Mr. Bertrand Russell. In addition, there is a possibly new insight into Russell's relationship with Wittgenstein and details of the publication of his 1917 lectures on logical atomism. 9780231044608 ISBN 0231044607.
