The Conception of the Infinite, and the Solution of the Mathematical Antinomies: A Study in Psychological Analysis - Couverture souple
Présentation de l'éditeur
The question treated in this little volume is one of no small interest from several quite different points of view. To one interested in lucid and systematic thinking, the tangle of thought which has always obtained in this corner of the philosophic field cannot but be repulsive and irritating. To be told that of two impossible things one must be true; that of the same two lines one may be looked upon as, at pleasure, equal to, less than, or greater than the other, both remaining unchanged; that A chilles, running rapidly, can never overtake the tortoise, moving slowly; to be told all this seriously, by men whose calling it is to think and to teach others to think, is well calculated to bring not merely suspicion but contempt upon speculative thought, and deservedly.
