Meer over het boek

By applying contemporary rhetorical analysis to mathematical discourse, the book challenges the notion that mathematics is synonymous with truth. It highlights the historical reliance on rhetorical practices, including analogy, metaphor, and invention, in the process of mathematical innovation. This exploration reveals the complex interplay between rhetoric and mathematics, suggesting that meaning in math is constructed rather than inherent.
