||1 of 3 people found the following review helpful.| Representation and Productive Ambiguity in Mathematics and the Sciences. Emily R. Grosholz.|By Leo F. Rogers|This is an important and wide-ranging study of creative invention in science and mathematics from the early modern period to the present day, showing how the development of ideas arises from the necessarily semiotic ambiguity in different kinds of representation.
||"She has given us a very readable and well-argued series of case studies in the history and philosophy of the sciences. Anyone with an interest in the history of mathematics, the history of science, or the general philosophy of science is bound to find a weal

Emily Grosholz offers an original investigation of demonstration in mathematics and science, examining how it works and why it is persuasive. Focusing on geometrical demonstration, she shows the roles that representation and ambiguity play in mathematical discovery. She presents a wide range of case studies in mechanics, topology, algebra, logic, and chemistry, from ancient Greece to the present day, but focusing particularly on the seventeenth and twentieth centuries.
