This bookgathers the proceedings of the conference "Cultures of Mathematics andLogic," held in Guangzhou, China. The event was the third in a series ofinterdisciplinary, international conferences emphasizing the culturalcomponents of philosophy of mathematics and logic. It brought togetherresearchers from many disciplines whose work sheds new light on the diversityof mathematical and logical cultures and practices. In this context, thecultural diversity can be diachronical (different cultures in differenthistorical periods), geographical (different cultures in different regions), orsociological in nature.
