Review text

In this insightful and clearly argued essay, De Lorenzo submits conceptual criteria to develop histories of mathematics. Taking into consideration the polemic between historians (e.g., Dauben) and mathematicians (e.g., Weil), De Lorenzo enriches this discussion by introducing the concept of `sectorial' history. For the entire collection see [Zbl 0932.00037].
