"Redeeming Mathematics is a valuable addition the growing literature on the relationship between mathematics and Christian belief. Poythress's treatment of three distinct dimensions of mathematics-as transcendent abstract truths, as part of the physical world, and as comprehensible to human beings-is a unique and helpful addition to the conversation on this relationship. The book is accessible to non-specialists, but even those who are well-versed in these matters will find much to interest and challenge them." -James Bradley, Professor Emeritus of Mathematics, Calvin College; author, Mathematics Through the Eyes of Faith; Editor, Journal of the Association of Christians in the Mathematical Sciences
This groundbreaking book lays a theistic foundation for the study of mathematics, exploring everything from simple concepts such as addition and subtraction to more complex topics such as set theory and the nature of infinity.
