[edit] MATHEMATICAL LOGIC RECURSION THEORY, GODEL'S THEOREM, SET THEORY AND MODEL THEORY

The requirement to reason logically forms the basis of all mathematics, and hence mathematical logic is one of the most fundamental topics that students study. Assuming no prior knowledge of the topic, this book provides an introduction for advanced undergraduate students. The concept of model underlies the text, giving it a theoretical coherence.

The requirement to reason logically forms the basis of all mathematics, and hence mathematical logic is one of the most fundamental topics that students will study. Assuming no prior knowledge of the topic, this book provides an accessible introduction for advanced undergraduate students. Logic forms the basis of mathematics, and is hence a fundamental part of any mathematics course. It is a major element in theoretical computer science and has undergone a huge revival with the every-growing importance of computer science. This text is based on a course to undergraduates and provides a clear and accessible introduction to mathematical logic. The concept of model provides the underlying theme, giving the text a theoretical coherence whilst still covering a wide area of logic. The foundations having been laid in Part I, this book starts with recursion theory, a topic essential for the complete scientist. Then follows Godel's incompleteness theorems and axiomatic set theory. Chapter 8 provides an introduction to model theory. There are examples throughout each section, and varied selection of exercises at the end. Answers to the exercises are given in the appendix.
