内容简介

Henri Poincaré (1854-1912) was the greatest mathematician of his time. He founded the field of topology and made important contributions to theoretical physics, including the discovery of Special Relativity. This volume reconstructs the philosophical thought of Poincaré and presents it as a unified system, reconciling apparent conflicts and examining its potential shortcomings with a critical eye.
