Description:

A reconstruction of the philosophical thought of Henri Poincare, the mathematician who founded the field of topology and made important contributions to theoretical physics. It presents his thought as a unified system, reconciling apparent conflicts and examining its potential shortcomings.

Synopsis:

Henri Poincare (1854? 1912) was one of the greatest mathematicians and philosophers of all time. He founded topology and made important contributions to theoretical physics. Yet despite his numerous achievements Poincare never constructed a systematic philosophy. In this book, Elie Zahar presents Poincare's work for the first time as a unified system of thought.
