by Lev Beklemishev, Moscow The ?eld of mathematical logic-evolving around the notions of logical validity, provability, and computation-was created in the ?rst half of the previous century by a cohort of brilliant mathematicians and philosophers such as Frege, Hilbert, Godel, Turing, Tarski, Malcev, Gentzen, and some others. The development of this discipline is arguably among the highest achievements of science in the twentieth century: it expanded mat- matics into a novel area of applications, subjected logical reasoning and computability to rigorous analysis, and eventually led to the creation of computers. The textbook by Professor Wolfgang Rautenberg is a well-written - ... Read more

Reviews for A Concise Introduction to Mathematical Logic (Universitext)
From the reviews of the third edition: “Wolfgang Rautenberg’s A Concise Introduction to Mathematical Logic is a pretty ambitious undertaking, seeing that at the indicated introductory level it covers ‘classical material … and Godel’s incompleteness theorems, as well as some topics motivated by applications, such as chapter on logic programming’ (from the Foreword by Lev Beklemishev). … The third ...
