Synopsis

Excerpt from The Mathematical Psychology of Gratry and Boole: Translated From the Language of the Higher Calculus Into That of Elementary Geometry

Dear Dr. Maudsley, -

You have often asked me to explain, for students unaquainted with the Infinitesimal Calculus, certain doctrines expressed in terms of that Calculus by P. Gratry and my late husband. That you permit me to dedicate my attempt to you will, at least, be a guarantee that the main ideas of mathematical psychology are based, not on mystic dreams, but on scientific induction.

I am glad of this opportunity of expressing to you my gratitude, both for your published works, and for much personal kindness to myself.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book explores the interface of mathematical science and human psychology. The author argues that mathematics is not simply the study of numbers and forms but also a tool for understanding the workings of the human mind. The book traces the historical development of mathematical concepts, from the early Greeks to the invention of calculus, showing how these concepts have been used to model and explain human thought and action. The author also discusses the psychological significance of mathematical symbols and the role of mathematics in education and the development of genius. Ultimately, this book provides a fascinating and thought-provoking exploration of the relationship between mathematics and the human psyche.
