Mancosu provides the first comprehensive account of the relationship between mathematical advances of the seventeenth century and the philosophy of mathematics of the period. Starting with the Renaissance debates on the certainty of mathematics, Mancosu leads the reader through the foundational issues raised by the emergence of these new mathematical techniques. He draws a sophisticated picture of the subtle dependencies between technical development and philosophical reflection in seventeenth century mathematics.
