Logic is, and should be, the core subject area of modern mathemat ics. The blueprint for twentieth century mathematical thought, thanks to Hilbert and Bourbaki, is the axiomatic development of the subject. As a result, logic plays a central conceptual role. At the same time, mathematical logic has grown into one of the most recondite areas of mathematics. Most of modern logic is inaccessible to all but the special ist. Yet there is a need for many mathematical scientists-not just those engaged in mathematical research-to become conversant with the key ideas of logic.

Reviews for Handbook of Logic and Proof Techniques for Computer Science
"This is really what it promises to be—a good handbook: supple, self-contained, providing the necessary and sufficient working resources . . . it is more than [one] expect[s]: the rigor of usefulness and conciseness exceeds or equals . . . the pleasure of reading it." —Zentralblatt Math
