Model and mathematics : : from the 19th to the 21st century / / editors, Michael Friedman, Karin Krauthausen.

This open access book collects the historical and medial perspectives of a systematic and epistemological analysis of the complicated, multifaceted relationship between model and mathematics, ranging from, for example, the physical mathematical models of the 19th century to the simulation and digita...
