Incompleteness

What Hacker News says

   The other day I was going through the library stacks and came across "Incompleteness: The Proof and Paradox of Kurt Gödel" by Rebecca Goldstein and was really drawn into it, was a great read but it was something I never seen suggested anywhere. The book came out in 2005 and off the old due date slip, it was only ever checked out 7 times which made me think, what other good books have you read that fell beneath the radar? How did you find the book in the first place?

   Incompleteness by Rebecca Goldstein is also a fantastic bio of Gödel that captures the historical context and significance of his work

   For further reading on Gödel, Rebecca Goldstein's Incompleteness is a great book. It is a biography of Gödel but also places his work in the context of the philosophical debates of the time.

   I recently read 'Incompleteness: The Proof and Paradox of Kurt Gödel' by Rebecca Goldstein [1], I highly recommend it for those interested in learning more about his life and the proof itself.

   On a related note, if you are interested in learning more about Godel and the Incompleteness Theorem and its significance, I recommend the book Incompleteness by Rebecca Goldstein.
