ABSTRACT
For many years, I have held the view that mathematics is a particularly concentrated example of the functioning of human intelligence, and that this is one of the reasons why it is so powerful. But until the new model of intelligence was developed, this was largely an intuitive, although strongly held, conviction. In the first part of this chapter, I show how mathematics Can be seen as an important particular case of the general model described in Chapter 8, and in the second part, I consider a question that arises from Chapter 10: What kind of theory is mathematics?
