User’s Reviews

Editorial Reviews: Review “The book is devoted to a rather difficult topic; its style, however, makes most of its parts digestible, sometimes even enjoyable.” — Mathematical Reviews”Smullyan goes right to the essence of Godel’s argument and its subsequent extensions. He thereby achieves a simplicity that will reach out to the general reader even as it will delight the expert.” –Choice”Exhibit[s] the hallmarks of Smullyan’s style. . .Accessible to beginners, yet present[s] material of interest to specialists.”–Modern Logic”A highly original approach.”–Journal of Symbolic Logic About the Author Raymond M.
