The Element introduces the philosophy of mathematical practice, which takes mathematical practice and contrasts it with mathematical philosophy, a term traced back to Bertrand Russell's scientific philosophy. It discusses mathematical structuralism and visual thinking, focusing on methodological aspects and historical and contemporary examples.
