Where Mathematics Come From (Paperback) [Buy it!] | George Lakoff | USD 60.19 (Thu May 23 01:19:18 2024) | AbebooksAU | AussieBookSeller | ISBN10: 0465037712, ISBN13: 9780465037711, [publisher: Basic Books, New York] Softcover Paperback. This book is about mathematical ideas, about what mathematics means-and why. Abstract ideas, for the most part, arise via conceptual metaphor-metaphorical ideas projecting from the way we function in the everyday physical world. Where Mathematics Comes From argues that conceptual metaphor plays a central role in mathematical ideas within the cognitive unconscious-from arithmetic and algebra to sets and logic to infinity in all of its forms. Renowned linguist George Lakoff pairs with psychologist Rafael Nunez in the first book to provide a serious study of the cognitive science of mathematical ideas.
