Kronecker’s views on the foundations of mathematics are often reduced to jokes and regarded as an outdated set of ill-assorted ideas. A closer look however shows that they constitute an original and coherent doctrine justified by epistemological convictions. This doctrine appears in the article On the concept of number, published in the Journal of Crelle (1887) and, especially, in the last cour...

The point of view of the book derives from Leopold Kronecker (1823-1891), whose views were quite consonant with those of MAP. Kronecker resisted the overthrow of the Aristotelian (and Gaussian) prohibition of completed infinites on the ground that the overthrow was unnecessary. In other words, he committed himself to doing mathematics without completed infinites, basing his work on algorithmic ...

ovaries we found that new growths of connective tissue had been developed in their stroma, containing in some places myxomatous tissue. Since ovarian connective-tissue tumours seldom occur, and much difference of opinion exists as to their origin, as is shown by the work of Leopold,1 so we took much interest in this case, as the swelling has not yet been described which here presented itself. A...

ITT (now Xylem) Water & Wastewater Leopold Business Unit has provided dissolved air flotation (DAF) systems to the municipal potable water treatment market since early 1990s. This chapter discusses DAF process and high-rate Clari-DAF® system design criteria. It also presents data from pilot studies case of full-scale plants in operation showing expected performance through system.

Many philosophers have become familiar with Leopold’s land ethic through the writings of J. Baird Callicott, who claims that Leopold bases his land ethic on a “protosociobiological” argument that Darwin gives in the Descent of Man. On this view, which has become the canonical interpretation, Leopold’s land ethic is based on extending our moral sentiments to ecosystems. I argue that the evidence...

Neurophysiological (W. A. Freiwald, D. Y. Tsao, & M. S. Livingstone, 2009; D. A. Leopold, I. V. Bondar, & M. A. Giese, 2006) and psychophysical (D. A. Leopold, A. J. O'Toole, T. Vetter, & V. Blanz, 2001; G. Rhodes & L. Jeffery, 2006; R. Robbins, E. McKone, & M. Edwards, 2007) evidence suggests that faces are encoded as differences from a mean or prototypical face, consistent with the conceptual...
