Against this view, Curtis Franks argues that Hilbert's deepest and most central insight was that mathematical techniques and practices do not need grounding in any philosophical principles. The Autonomy of Mathematical Knowledge presents the philosophical ideas underlying David Hilbert's foundational program in a new light.
