Mathematics and Information in the Philosophy of Michel Serres, Hardcover by .... Mathematics and Information in the Philosophy of Michel Serres, Hardcover by Bühlmann, Vera, ISBN 1350019763, ISBN-13 9781350019768, Brand New, Free shipping in the US In order to introduce a broader readership to the thinking of French philosopher Serres (1930–2019), Bühlmann teases out the mathematics and information in it. In particular, she points out some of the epistemologically unsettling situations in contemporary science and technology that he addressed, and formulates the original concept of Quantum Literacy to examine the particular way in which he responded to these situations. She covers quantum literacy, chronopedia: counting time and treasuring time, banking universality: the magnitudes of aging, the incandescent Paraclete: tables of plenty, sophistication and anamnesis: remembering an abundant past, architecture of the meteora, and the static tripod.
