Recensione
"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. Artemov, Journal of Symbolic Logic
"I found it lively, lucid, and informative...Boolos' style of writing is unusually kind to the reader. 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
Descrizione del libro
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.
