This volume covers many diverse topics related in varying degrees
to mathematics in mind including the mathematical and topological
structures of thought and communication. It examines mathematics in
mind from the perspective of the spiral, cyclic and hyperlinked
structures of the human mind in terms of its language, its thoughts
and its various modes of communication in science, philosophy,
literature and the arts including a chapter devoted to the spiral
structure of the thought of Marshall McLuhan. In it, the authors
examine the topological structures of hypertext, hyperlinking, and
hypermedia made possible by the Internet and the hyperlinked
structures that existed before its emergence. It also explores the
cognitive origins of mathematical thinking of the human mind and
its relation to the emergence of spoken language, and studies the
emergence of mathematical notation and its impact on education.
Topics addressed include: * The historical context of any topic
that involves how mathematical thinking emerged, focusing on
archaeological and philological evidence. * Connection between math
cognition and symbolism, annotation and other semiotic processes. *
Interrelationships between mathematical discovery and cultural
processes, including technological systems that guide the thrust of
cognitive and social evolution. * Whether mathematics is an innate
faculty or forged in cultural-historical context * What, if any,
structures are shared between mathematics and language
