Description
The significance of foundational debate in mathematics that took place in the 1920s seems to have been recognized only in circles of mathematicians and philosophers.
A period in the history of mathematics when mathematics and philosophy, usually so far away from each other, seemed to meet.
The foundational debate is presented with all its brilliant contributions and its shortcomings, its new ideas and its misunderstandings.
