A book with a non-standard approach to empirical mathematics is Stephan
Koerner, "Experience and Theory" (Routledge, circa 1964) who uses a
three-valued logic to discuss the difference between perceived or
measured physical magnitudes and standard mathematics, including the
non-transitivity of equality in perceived or measured magnitudes.
