About this book
On the Theory of the Infinite in Modern Thought is a book by Eleanor F. Jourdain. A prefatory note says that of the two papers reproduced, the first was given in 1905 to a meeting of the women science students in Oxford, the second in 1908 to the Philosophical Society of this College, and that the lecture form has been retained. The contents list names, among others, a section titled The Problem of the Finite and the Infinite.
One paper says its object is to show that the close though apparently accidental union of philosophy and mathematics throughout the history of thought can now be explained. The text says philosophy is held to include at least two great branches, Metaphysics and Ethics. The text says that if chemistry as a science is bound to take account of all its facts, the scientist is confronted with a problem of dimensions that is really a problem of Infinity.
