PERHAPS A GIFT VOUCHER FOR MUM?: MOTHER'S DAY
Jeremy Avigad is Professor in the Department of Philosophy and the Department of Mathematical Sciences at Carnegie Mellon University. His research interests include mathematical logic, formal verification, automated reasoning, and the philosophy and history of mathematics. He is the Director of the Charles C. Hoskinson Center for Formal Mathematics at Carnegie Mellon University.
'Avigad provides a much needed introduction to mathematical logic that foregrounds the role of syntax and computability in our understanding of consistency and inconsistency. The result provides a jumping off point to any of the fields of modern logic, not only teaching the technical groundwork, but also providing a window into how to think like a logician.' Henry Towsner, University of Pennsylvania 'This book by one of the most knowledgeable researchers in the field covers a remarkably broad selection of material without sacrificing depth. Its clear organization and unified approach - focused on a syntactic approach and on the role of computation - make it suitable for a wide range of introductory logic sequences at the upper-level undergraduate and graduate level, as well as a valuable resource for background material in more advanced logic courses.' Denis Hirschfeldt, University of Chicago
