The Pendulum
Springer 2006; US$ 229.99An anthology that deals with the science, history, methodology and pedagogy of pendulum motion. This work contains material for the cross-disciplinary treatment of the pendulum from elementary school to high school to university classes. It provides an awareness of the importance of the pendulum in the foundation and development of modern science. more...
High-Dimensional Chaotic and Attractor Systems
Springer 2007; US$ 179.99Details prediction and control of high-dimensional chaotic and attractor systems of real life. This book provides a scientific tool that enables the actual performance of competitive research in high-dimensional chaotic and attractor dynamics. It deals with phase synchronization in high-dimensional chaotic systems. more...
Philosophy of Mathematics
Taylor and Francis 2010; US$ 38.95In his long-awaited new edition of Philosophy of Mathematics , James Robert Brown tackles important new as well as enduring questions in the mathematical sciences. Can pictures go beyond being merely suggestive and actually prove anything? Are mathematical results certain? Are experiments of any real value? This clear and engaging book takes... more...
The Mathematics of Logic
Cambridge University Press 2007; US$ 38.00This textbook rescues students from traditional, dry and uninspiring introductory courses in logic, quickly providing context using genuine mathematical applications. more...
The Arche Papers on the Mathematics of Abstraction
Springer 2007; US$ 179.99Collects together important papers concerning both the method of abstraction generally and the use of particular abstraction principles to reconstruct central areas of mathematics along logicist lines. This book focuses on extending the Neo-Fregean treatment to mathematics, and provides a test of the scope and limits of the neo-logicist project. more...
Analysis and Synthesis of Logics
Springer 2008; US$ 219.99Starting with simple examples showing the relevance of cutting and pasting logics, the monograph develops a mathematical theory of combining and decomposing logics, ranging from propositional and first-order based logics to higher-order based logics as well as to non-truth functional logics. The theory covers mechanisms for combining semantic structures... more...
Andrzej Mostowski and Foundational Studies
IOS Press 2008; US$ 130.00Andrzej Mostowski was one of the leading 20th century logicians. This volume examines his legacy, devoted both to his scientific heritage and to the memory of him as a great researcher, teacher, organizer of science and person. It includes the bibliography of Mostowski's writings. more...
Cylindric Algebras
Elsevier Science 1985; US$ 114.25Volume II completes the description of the main aspects of the theory, covering representation questions, model theory and decision problems for them, translations from logic to algebra and vice-versa, and relationships with other algebraic versions of logic. more...
Accurate Clock Pendulums
Oxford University Press, UK 2004; US$ 144.99Almost all of a pendulum clock's accuracy resides in its pendulum. If the pendulum is accurate, the clock will be accurate. In this book, the author describes how to make a more accurate pendulum or pendulum clock. All scientific aspects of the pendulum design and operation are explained in simple terms and backed up with experimental data. - ;The... more...
The Limits of Abstraction
OUP Oxford 2008; US$ 29.98Kit Fine develops a Fregean theory of abstraction, and suggests that it may yield a new philosophical foundation for mathematics, one that can account for both our reference to various mathematical objects and our knowledge of various mathematical truths. <i>The Limits of Abstraction</i> breaks new ground both technically and philosophically.... more...
