Abstract
Thinking about the relation between mathematical thinking and modern science is necessary for understanding the modern world. Martin Heidegger analyzes this subject from a unique perspective. In this essay, the concept of "mathematical" and its relation to mathematics and modern science is explained. The dangers of ascendancy of mathematical thinking are discussed; and finally, the differences between Heidegger’s views on mathematics and the prevalent philosophy of mathematics are considered.
