"The book contains an excellent combination of values: noble subject, fresh key results, and the gentle, friendly style of the author. It can be recommended as a textbook, as a handbook, or simply as high quality reading in logic."Sergei N.

When an argument becomes tricky, he breaks it down into a lot of small steps, showing the reader in detail just how to proceed. A result is that the book is remarkably easy to read."Vann McGee, Rutgers University, "I found it lively, lucid, and informative...Boolos' style of writing is unusually kind to the reader.

Synopsis
This book, written by one of the most distinguished of contemporary philosophers of mathematics, is a fully rewritten and updated successor to the author's earlier The Unprovability of Consistency (1979). Its subject is the relation between provability and modal logic, a branch of logic invented by Aristotle but much disparaged by philosophers and virtually ignored by mathematicians., This book, written by one of the most distinguished of contemporary philosophers of mathematics, is a fully rewritten and updated successor to the author's earlier The Unprovability of Consistency (1979). Its subject is the relation between provability and modal logic, a branch of logic invented by Aristotle but much disparaged by philosophers and virtually ignored by mathematicians. Here it receives its first scientific application since its invention. Modal logic is concerned with the notions of necessity and possibility. What George Boolos does is to show how the concepts, techniques, and methods of modal logic shed brilliant light on the most important logical discovery of the twentieth century: the incompleteness theorems of Kurt Godel and the 'self-referential' sentences constructed in their proof. The book explores the effects of reinterpreting the notions of necessity and possibility to mean provability and consistency., Boolos, a pre-eminent philosopher of mathematics, investigates the relationship between provability and modal logic.

- b***9 (81)- Bewertung vom Käufer.Letzter MonatBestätigter KaufAnother fantastic transaction. Seller was very responsive to a question I had about the item, and shipped it straight away, same day as my order. As before, the program was very well-packaged in a plastic sleeve within a padded envelope enforced with cardboard. Good doing business.
- o***e (248)- Bewertung vom Käufer.Letzte 6 MonateBestätigter KaufMark! Much thanks for my 1st Edition of Scott Fitzgerald's "All The Sad Young Me." As advertised, a very good copy mailed to me at warp speed and exceptionally well packed. We had a minor glitch, but you went above and beyond to rectify it and I could not be more please. Most professional of you and could not have asked for more. Looking forward to doing business again and only wish there were more book merchants out there as kind as you! Cheers and regards to you and yours. AAAAAAA++++++All the Sad Young Men F. Scott Fitzgerald 1st Ed 1st Print 1st State HC (Nr. 186696082129)
