Description
Together, Sets and Proofs and its sister volume Models and Computability will provide readers with a comprehensive guide to mathematical logic. All the authors are leaders in their fields and are drawn from the invited speakers at 'Logic Colloquium '97' (the major international meeting of the Association of Symbolic Logic). It is expected that the breadth and timeliness of these two volumes will prove an invaluable and unique resource for specialists, post-graduate researchers, and the informed and interested nonspecialist.
Reviews / Votes
'All the authors are leaders in their fields, some articles pushing forward the technical boundaries of the subject, others providing readable and authoritative overviews of particular important topics ... a number of papers can be expected to become classics, essential to any good library (individual or institutional).'
