Jeff Samuelson’s Reviews > L.E.J. Brouwer – Topologist, Intuitionist, Philosopher: How Mathematics Is Rooted in Life > Status Update

Great book, very well written

Fascinating man and great read so far. What an enigmatic character. Part consevative mathematician, but felt that mathematics and its applications were “sinful”. (Sin as treason to the self, not somethingthat concerns church or society). He is anti progressive but certainly not a reactionary. Trade, technology and business figured prominently on his list of sins.
Quite a page turner for a 850 pg tome
