"The author of this book has accomplished something that no one before him has even attempted. He has demonstrated that Fichte does indeed possess a coherent and original ‘philosophy of mathematics’ and even propounds a ‘new model of geometry,’ one that deserves closer attention than it has received. He also has shown that the connections between geometry and the Wissenschaftslehre are deep and significant, especially significant for an understanding the method of Fichte’s system." – Daniel Breazeale, in: <i>Notre Dame Philosophical Reviews</i>, August 2012<br />"This work testifies to the author's exact and extensive knowledge of the Fichtean texts, as well as of the philosophical, scientific and historical contexts. Wood has opened up completely new paths for Fichte research, and examines with clarity and precision a domain that up to now has hardly been researched." – Professor Dr. Marco Ivaldo, <i>University of Naples</i><br />"This study, written in a language distinguished by its limpidity and precision, and constantly supported by a close reading of the Fichtean texts and secondary literature, furnishes highly detailed and convincing demonstrations. In directly confronting the difficult historical relationship between the <i>Wissenschaftslehre</i> and mathematics, the author has broken new ground that is at once stimulating, decidedly innovative, and elegantly audacious." – Professor Dr. Emmanuel Cattin, <i>Université Blaise-Pascal, Clermont-Ferrand</i>
