Abstract: Abstract From our examination of a variety of mathematical topics, we now return to the underlying questions: What does this variety say about the nature of Mathematics? How does it illuminate the philosophical questions as to Mathematical truth and beauty and does it help to make judgements about the direction of Mathematical research? In particular, what is the foundation of Mathematics?
