Description
The Infinite by A. W. Moore explores the concept of infinity in its various forms, from ancient Greek thought to modern mathematical and philosophical ideas. Moore examines the development of conceptions of infinity over time, including medieval and early modern perspectives, as well as the work of influential thinkers such as Kant, Cantor, and Wittgenstein. He also develops his own views on the subject, drawing on recent advances in mathematics and philosophy. This third edition includes new material, including a technical appendix and an expanded glossary, making it a valuable resource for anyone interested in understanding the concept of infinity from multiple perspectives.
