A chapter in Finsler Set Theory: Platonism and Circularity, 1996, pp 213-214 from Springer

Abstract: Abstract The Finsler theory was intended as a way of defending classical mathematics from the urge to formalize it in reaction to the paradoxes of logic and set theory. The combinatorial fertility of this set theory seems at first to be one of its incidental products; but Finsler also believed that sets are generalized numbers and that the unsolved questions of set theory might be approached from that direction. So perhaps it is natural that his ideas should be stimulating from a combinatorial point of view.
