A valuable collection both for original source material as well as historical formulations of current problems. A valuable addition to the literature. -- The Review of MetaphysicsMuch more than a mere collection of papers.
It is also appropriate for self-study.The text opens with Godel's landmark 1931 paper demonstrating that systems of logic cannot admit proofs of all true assertions of arithmetic. -- Mathematics of ComputationAn anthology of fundamental papers on undecidability and unsolvability by major figures in the field, this classic reference is ideally suited as a text for graduate and undergraduate courses in logic, philosophy, and foundations of mathematics. Subsequent papers by Godel, Church, Turing, and Post single out the class of recursive functions as computable by finite algorithms.
