    Abstract

    The author of Knowledge and the Philosophy of Number (2020), Keith Hossack, Professor of Philosophy at Birkbeck, University of London, explains in this article something that seems very elementary, but which is enormously complex for a layman: what is a number, what counting is and how the infinite amount of numbers is analogous to the mind of God, the supreme mathematician.
