What does it mean to have visual intuition? Can we gain geometrical
knowledge by using visual reasoning? And if we can, is it because
we have a faculty of intuition? In" After Euclid," Jesse Norman
reexamines the ancient and long-disregarded concept of visual
reasoning and reasserts its potential as a formidable tool in our
ability to grasp various kinds of geometrical knowledge. The first
detailed philosophical case study of its kind, this text is
essential reading for scholars in the fields of mathematics and
philosophy.
