Published 12 Jun 2020 in math.HO | (2006.07247v2)

Abstract: In this paper, I explore what mathematical research can tell us about ourselves, and our role in the world, using examples from my own experience. The paper is a sequel to my piece "Mathematics is a Quest for Truth", published in the Notices of the American Mathematical Society in 2014.
