The Mathematics and the Liberal Arts pages are intended to be a resource for student research projects and for teachers interested in using the history of mathematics in their courses. Many pages focus on ethnomathematics and in the connections between mathematics and other disciplines. The notes in these pages are intended as much to evoke ideas as to indicate what the books and articles are about. They are not intended as reviews. However, some items have been reviewed in Mathematical Reviews, published by The American Mathematical Society. When the mathematical review (MR) number and reviewer are known to the author of these pages, they are given as part of the bibliographic citation. Subscribing institutions can access the more recent MR reviews online through MathSciNet.
Rav, Yehuda. On the interplay between logic and philosophy: a historical perspective. Theoria (San Sebastián) (2) 8 (1993), no. 19, 1--21. (Reviewer: Pierre Kerszberg.) SC: 03A05 (01A99 03-03), MR: 95c:03014.
The author discusses some of the connections between philosophy, logic, mathematics, and language. He focuses mainly on the West but also touches slightly on China. The reader should probably have a relatively strong background in philosophy before attempting this article. There is a long bibliography that should be useful for students making further investigations in these areas. Closely related topics: Philosophy, Logic, and China.
