A magnificent collection of work by the father of analytical philosophyGottlob Frege is widely considered one of the most influential minds in the history of philosophy, having spent a lifetime delving into the nuances of language and mathematics. Widely published on logic, analysis, geometry, and arithmetic, which he regarded as the purest form of thought, Frege's analytic approach to philosophy set the stage for the field's eventual linguistic turn. Collected Paper on Mathematics, Logic, and Philosophy is a compilation of his collected works across fields, allowing readers to share in his evolution of thought and catch a glimpse of a legendary mind at work.
Gottlob Frege Books
Friedrich Ludwig Gottlob Frege was a German mathematician, logician, and philosopher, widely recognized as a founder of modern logic and a pivotal figure in the foundations of mathematics. He is broadly considered the father of analytic philosophy due to his seminal writings on the philosophy of language and mathematics. Though largely overlooked during his time, his work was later introduced to subsequent generations of thinkers, cementing his indispensable contributions. Frege's approach is characterized by profound conceptual analysis and a relentless pursuit of rigor in logic and mathematics.







A philosophical discussion of the concept of number In the book, The Foundations of Arithmetic: A Logico-Mathematical Enquiry into the Concept of Number, Gottlob Frege explains the central notions of his philosophy and analyzes the perspectives of predecessors and contemporaries. The book is the first philosophically relevant discussion of the concept of number in Western civilization. The work went on to significantly influence philosophy and mathematics. Frege was a German mathematician and philosopher who published the text in 1884, which seeks to define the concept of a number. It was later translated into English. This is the revised second edition.
