Die Grundlagen der Arithmetik Eine logische mathematische Untersuchung über den Begriff der Zahl

About this book

In the late 19th century, as the foundations of mathematics were being rigorously examined, Gottlob Frege's "Die Grundlagen der Arithmetik: Eine logische mathematische Untersuchung über den Begriff der Zahl" emerged as a pivotal text. This groundbreaking work challenges the very essence of arithmetic by dissecting concepts such as "number" and "truth" through a logical lens. Frege's exploration of the relationship between logic and mathematics sets the stage for modern mathematical philosophy, emphasizing the significance of definitions and axioms. Ideal for students, mathematicians, and philosophers, this treatise invites readers to engage with the complexities of numerical understanding and the philosophical implications of mathematical truths. Discover how Frege reshaped the discourse on arithmetic and its foundational principles.
