Crise des fondements des mathématiques: Russell, critique de Kant

This French-language book asks what the foundations of mathematics are, and whether there is a crisis in them. Saeb Elamami also asks whether that crisis can be reduced to the crisis of set-theoretic paradoxes.

Its subtitle names Russell and a critique of Kant, placing the discussion within those two reference points. The publisher notes that the foundations of mathematics are often left out of the courses that train mathematics teachers and philosophy teachers alike.

Students and teachers of mathematics and philosophy, the groups the description says often miss this material, will find the discussion a direct route into the questions.
