The first book surveying the history and ideas behind reverse mathematics
Reverse mathematics is a new field that seeks to find the axioms needed to prove given theorems. In Reverse Mathematics, John Stillwell offers a historical and representative view, emphasizing basic analysis and giving a novel approach to logic. By using a minimum of mathematical logic in a well-motivated way, Reverse Mathematics will engage advanced undergraduates and all mathematicians interested in the foundations of mathematics.Languages:EnglishPublisher:Princeton University PressISBN-13:9780691196411ISBN-10:691196419UPC:9780691196411Book Category:Mathematics, ScienceBook Subcategory:History & Philosophy, Logic, HistorySize:9.10 x 6.10 x 0.60 inchesWeight:0.65Product ID:SCTATKZBY9
