(2017) Space, time and the limits of human understanding, Dordrecht, Springer.
There is a paradox in exploring space-time and the limits of human understanding from the perspective of mathematics. For mathematics provides the language in which theories of space-time are formulated and yet is understood to be outside of space and time itself. Thus geometry is the science of space, and yet is itself beyond space.
