Hardcover. Etat : New. Language: English. About The Book: An Introduction to Mathematics (1911) by Alfred North Whitehead is a concise exploration of mathematics aimed at a general audience. Rather than teaching calculation, Whitehead examines mathematicsÕ nature, unity, and deep connections to the natural world. He argues that mathematics is foundational for structured thought and scientific reasoning, emphasizing its role in understanding phenomena. Whitehead promotes a view of mathematics as a dynamic, interconnected field rather than isolated facts, encouraging readers to appreciate its broader applications. This work prefigures themes in WhiteheadÕs later philosophy, advocating for imaginative engagement with mathematical concepts over rote memorization. About The Translator: Alfred North Whitehead (1861Ð1947) was an influential English mathematician and philosopher, renowned for co-authoring Principia Mathematica with Bertrand Russell, a foundational work in mathematical logic. Later, Whitehead shifted focus to philosophy, developing process philosophy, a theory suggesting reality consists of interrelated processes rather than independent material objects. This view influenced fields like ecology, education, and theology. Whitehead advocated for education reform, opposing rote learning and "inert ideas" in favor of integrated knowledge and imaginative thinking. His Process and Reality and The Aims of Education remain foundational texts in both metaphysics and educational philosophy.
