Interdisciplinary Perspectives on Math Cognition (eBook, PDF)

Redaktion: Danesi, Marcel

• Format: PDF

Produktbeschreibung

This is an anthology of contemporary studies from various disciplinary perspectives written by some of the world's most renowned experts in each of the areas of mathematics, neuroscience, psychology, linguistics, semiotics, education, and more. Its purpose is not to add merely to the accumulation of studies, but to show that math cognition is best approached from various disciplinary angles, with the goal of broadening the general understanding of mathematical cognition through the different theoretical threads that can be woven into an overall understanding.

This volume will be of interest to mathematicians, cognitive scientists, educators of mathematics, philosophers of mathematics, semioticians, psychologists, linguists, anthropologists, and all other kinds of scholars who are interested in the nature, origin, and development of mathematical cognition.

Rezensionen

"The book is dense with very well rounded research that provides the reader with a deep understanding of each body of research. I highly recommend this book for those interested in how math cognition works and to have new, insightful takeaways for additional research of your own making." (Peter Olszewski, MAA Reviews, January 4, 2020)
