Matter Matters: Metaphysics and Methodology in the Early Modern Period

by KurtSmith (Author)

Synopsis

Why is there a material world? Why is it fundamentally mathematical? Matter Matters explores a seventeenth-century answer to these questions as it emerged from the works of Descartes and Leibniz. Kurt Smith establishes the claim that mathematics is intelligible if, and only if, matter exists.
