On Naturalizing the Epistemology of Mathematics
Pacific Philosophical Quarterly 90 (1):63-97 (2009)
Abstract
In this paper, I consider an argument for the claim that any satisfactory epistemology of mathematics will violate core tenets of naturalism, i.e. that mathematics cannot be naturalized. I find little reason for optimism that the argument can be effectively answered.Author's Profile
