{"product_id":"kurt-godel-and-the-foundations-matthias-baaz-9781107677999","title":"Kurt Godel and the Foundations of Mathematics: Horizons of Truth","description":"This volume commemorates the life, work, and foundational views of Kurt Gödel (1906-1978), most famous for his hallmark works on the completeness of first-order logic, the incompleteness of number theory, and the consistency - with the other widely accepted axioms of set theory - of the axiom of choice and of the generalized continuum hypothesis. It explores current research, advances, and ideas for future directions not only in the foundations of mathematics and logic, but also in the fields of computer science, artificial intelligence, physics, cosmology, philosophy, theology, and the history of science. The discussion is supplemented by personal reflections from several scholars who knew Gödel personally, providing some interesting insights into his life. By putting his ideas and life's work into the context of current thinking and perceptions, this book will extend the impact of Gödel's fundamental work in mathematics, logic, philosophy, and other disciplines for future generations of researchers.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Matthias Baaz\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1107677998\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781107677999\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Cambridge University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 03\/27\/2014\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 540\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 2.04lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 10.00h x 7.00w x 1.09d","brand":"Matthias Baaz","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48087628415231,"sku":"9781107677999","price":85.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_1b273651-64f6-4528-89a4-a1023b9a2c25.jpg?v=1769100696","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/kurt-godel-and-the-foundations-matthias-baaz-9781107677999","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
