Description and Table of Contents
Description
The book is a collection of research and review articles in several areas of modern mathematics and mathematical physics published in the span of three decades. The ICM Kyoto talk “Mathematics as Metaphor” summarises the author's view on mathematics as an outgrowth of natural language.
