Bob Hale and Crispin Wright draw together here the key writings in which they have worked out their distinctive approach to the fundamental questions: what is mathematics about, and how do we know it? The volume features much new material: introduction, postscript, bibliographies, and a new essay on a key problem. The Reason's Proper Study is the strongest presentation yet of the controversial neo-Fregean view that mathematical knowledge may be based a priori on logic and definitional abstraction principles. It will prove indispensable reading not just to philosophers of mathematics but to all who are interested in the fundamental metaphysical and epistemological issues which the programme raises.
