It also put the epistemology and the philosophy of science on a new footing. In this volume a sound overview of this development is given by leading mathematicians, physicists, philosophers, and historians of science. This interdisciplinary approach gives this collection a unique character. It can be used by scientists and students, but it also addresses a general readership.Lecture Notes in Physics,0075-8450 ;402Mathematical physicsGeometryMathematical analysisAnalysis (Mathematics)Theoretical, Mathematical and Computational Physicshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P19005Geometryhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/M21006Analysishttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/M12007Mathematical physics.Geometry.Mathematical analysis.Analysis (Mathematics).Theoretical, Mathematical and Computational Physics.Geometry.Analysis.516/.009/034Boi Lucianoedthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtFlament Dominiqueedthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtSalanskis Jean-Micheledthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtBOOK99102574248033211830–1930: A Century of Geometry2525591UNINA
