In this introduction, we present the major positions in the philosophy of mathematics and formulate their core ideas into clear, accessible theses. Readers will learn which philosophers developed each position and the historical context in which they emerged. Drawing on fundamental intuitions and scientific findings, one can argue for or against these theses - such arguments form the second focus of this book.\u003cbr\u003eThe book aims to encourage readers to reflect on the philosophy of mathematics, to develop their own stance, and to learn how to argue for it.\u003c\/p\u003e This book is a translation of the original German 2nd edition.
