Description
Redeeming Mathematics: A God-Centered Approach explores the connection between mathematics and Christianity. Vern Poythress argues that the harmony of mathematical truths, the physical world, and our thinking depends on the existence of the Christian God.
The author shows how these distinct perspectives cohere because they all find their origin in God's consistent character and nature. From simple arithmetic to complex concepts like set theory and infinity, this book provides a theistic foundation for mathematical inquiry.
