Mathematical Logic (eBook, ePUB)

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

A classic introduction to the main areas of mathematical logic, this book asserts that mathematical logic is not a collection of vaguely related results, but a coherent method of attacking interesting problems. The author presents the basic concepts in a clear and accessible fashion, concentrating on what he views as the central topics of mathematical logic: proof theory, model theory, recursion theory, axiomatic number theory, and set theory. There are many exercises, and they provide the outline of what amounts to a second book that goes into all topics in more depth.

Rezensionen

" ""classic text is as fresh and useful today as when first published. Noted for the economy of its presentation, it includes a wealth of basic and key results from all parts of mathematical logic."" -Solomon Feferman, Stanford University, January 2001
""The book remains an excellent introduction to logic . . . reads as a continuous whole, not a set of isolated topics . . . "" -C. W. Kilmister, The Mathematical Gazette, July 2003"
