Imre Lakatos and the Guises of Reason Paperback - 2001
by John Kadvany
First line
It is remarkable the extent to which the nineteenth century was a time of error for mathematics: not trivial oversights or amateurish confusions but fundamental mistakes in the understanding of mathematical concepts and the formulation of mathematical proofs.
From the rear cover
"Not merely a uniquely insightful account of the life and work of one of this century's most original philosophers, this book provides a glimpse of a vanished intellectual world, that of Middle Europe before the catastrophes. Finding Georg Lukacs and Hegel in Lakatos does more than elucidate Lakatos's thought; it provides us with an entry to a whole different intellectual style. As interpreted by Kadvany, Lakatos functions as a sort of Rosetta Stone to that brilliant but now quite foreign intellectual culture. A brilliant tour de force."--Jerome Ravetz, author of "Scientific Knowledge and Its Social Problems"
