| The logicists were like the Aristolean view in that they approached mathematics from a logical viewpoint. |
| They include hoteliers, brewery giants, food specialists, financial wizards, recycling experts and transport logicists. |
| This goal is remarkably similar to those of the common sense logicists, but the research methodology is entirely different. |
| Of course if we are logicists and think that mathematics reduces to logic, and logic to the application of a single rule, then scepticism is appropriate. |
| It would build on the early work in axiomatizing branches of mathematics, as well as the monumental efforts of logicists like Frege in developing rigorous logical systems. |
| Logicists set out to reduce mathematics to logic, while formalists appealed to the practice of manipulating characters in rule-governed ways. |
