That’s the argument of Peter Liljedahl, a professor of mathematics education at Simon Fraser University in Vancouver, who has spent years researching what works in teaching. These are the students who end up hitting a wall when math courses move from easier algebra to more advanced concepts in, say, calculus, he argues. “At

There’s a big example of this historically, in mathematics. But then mathematical notation was invented, and math took off—with the development of algebra, calculus, and eventually all the various mathematical sciences. Back before about 500 years ago, pretty much the only way to “express math” was in natural language.

But here we want to think not about what’s “mathematically describable”, but instead about what in general is actually implemented —say by our senses, our measuring devices, or our ways of analyzing things. And one particularly prominent example of this is mathematics, or rather, metamathematics. But other features do not.

Three centuries ago science was transformed by the idea of representing the world using mathematics.

In 2000 I was interested in what the simplest possible axiom system for logic (Boolean algebra) might be.
