This treatise presents an interpretation of mathematics as the investigation of "structural possibilities", as opposed to absolute Platonic objects. After treating the natural numbers and analysis, the approach is extended to set theory, where it is shown how to dispense with a fixed universe of sets. Finally, problems of application to the physical world are addressed.
