Adventures of Mind and Mathematics

Mehr zum Buch

Focusing on the concept of "event," this monograph explores the interplay between cognition and mathematics, emphasizing the significance of bodily experiences and symbolism. It is divided into three parts: the first critiques traditional mathematical cognition, proposing an event-centric perspective; the second reinterprets common mathematical phenomena through this lens; and the final section examines broader topics, including the embodied experience of mathematics and the connection between experience and mind. It appeals to those interested in educational theory, social development, and psychology.
