Media Reviews
... the presentation is impeccable. The introductory notes which explicate Gödel's thought are notable papers in themselves ... Such is the thoroughness of the enterprise in making Gödel's work accessible, this volume concludes with addenda and corrigenda to Volume I! ... Connoisseurs of mathematical logic and the history and philosophy of mathematics will cherish the opportunity afforded by this volume (and by the first volume, too) to gain insight into the mind of one of the greatest logicians of all time. * The Mathematical Gazette *
The books are carefully and beautifully produced and offer rich material, illuminating not only the outstanding work of Gödel, but also the whole mathematical logic of the twentieth century, including some philosophical and historical aspects. * EMS *
