Abstract
The outstanding Russian mathematician Alexei Nikolaevich Parshin (1942–2022) was also a deep thinker and an original historian of science. He summed up his ideas in a number of articles published in various journals and collections, the main of which formed the content of two books: «The Way. Mathematics and Other Worlds» (2002), «Ladder of Reflections« (2022).
An attempt is made to give an analysis of the main ideas of A.N.Parshin.
