Reviews

'This important work probes many of the critical problems that arose in this era of modern mathematics as it illustrates the reaction of Husserl to these issues ... Highly recommended.' R. L. Pour, CHOICE 'From his days as a student of mathematics to his latest philosophical works, Husserl remained in touch with some of the major thinkers and pathbreaking advances in early 20th century mathematics. With great skill and a thorough knowledge of Husserl's work, Mirja Hartimo shows us in great detail how this is reflected in the development of his phenomenology.' David Carr, Emory University 'Edmund Husserl belongs to a lineage of philosophers for whom logic and mathematics were a primary source of philosophical reflection. In a jargon-free presentation, Hartimo skillfully guides us in the discovery of Husserl's attitude towards the mathematical practice of his time and insightfully analyzes the unfolding of his philosophical views on logic and mathematics as an attempt to make sense of this practice. This excellent book will benefit the general reader as well as the specialist.' Paolo Mancosu, University of California at Berkeley 'This book presents an insightful and original account of Husserl's philosophy of mathematics and of how it has been shaped by a particular methodology. It will be a rich phenomenological resource, both in highlighting the relevance of Husserl's thought to present-day debates, as well as in bringing together a lot of interesting and much neglected material on its historical context.' Frode Kjosavik, Norwegian University of Life Sciences
