Rezensionen
"Jean Rioux has written an admirable synthesis of the main debates in the philosophy of mathematics between those of a largely classical perspective ... . The book weaves together three main threads ... . The best quality of the book is precisely Rioux's interweaving of the threads of his investigation." (Timothy Kearns, Thomistica, thomistica.net, November 21, 2023)
