Andrzej Mostowski and Foundational Studies (Stand Alone) by A. Ehrenfeucht | (PDF) Free Download

Description

Andrzej Mostowski was one of the leading 20th century logicians. His legacy is examined in this volume of papers devoted both to his extraordinary scientific heritage and to the memory of him as a great researcher, teacher, organizer of science and person. Professor Mostowski pioneered and mastered many areas of mathematical logic. His contributions spanned set theory, recursion theory, and model theory – the backbone of the foundations of mathematics. The complete detailed bibliography of Mostowski’s writings is included. For many years after WWII and especially in the late sixties and until his untimely death in 1975, Warsaw, where he led the centre of foundational studies, was a place where many leading logicians visited, studied, and started their career. Their memories form an important part of this volume, attempting to bring back the extraordinary achievements and personality of Mostowski.Anyone wanting to see the roots of current applications of logic, be it in mathematics, computer science or philosophy, will find in this collection of articles plenty of helpful, stimulating and inspiring material both in science and about the social environment in which science is made.IOS Press is an international science, technical and medical publisher of high-quality books for academics, scientists, and professionals in all fields.

User’s Reviews

Reviews from Amazon users which were colected at the time this book was published on the website:

⭐This book is handsomely presented and will be a good reference. But the choice of contributions was underwhelming. The volume contains a number of short articles, some biographical, some mathematical. The mathematical articles were workmanlike, but did not really explain the significance of Mostowski.
