The Consistency of the Axiom of Choice and of the Generalized Continuum Hypothesis with the Axioms of Set Theory by Kurt G�del Kurt G�del (1906-1978) was a logician, mathematician and philosopher. He is regarded as one of the most significant logicians of all time, who's work has had immense impact upon scientific and philosophical thinking in the 20th century. G�del is best known for his three theorems, which set forth and explain the foundations of mathematics. This book provides the proof for the third of his three theorems. Included is a new foreword by Richard Laver, Professor of Mathematics at the University of Colorado at Boulder, who explains in simple, non-technical terms the basic, underlying ideas behind G�del's theorems and proofs and why they are relevant and important.

Kurt G�del (1906 - 1978) was a logician, mathematician and philosopher. He is regarded as one of the most significant logicians of all time, whose work has had immense impact upon scientific and philosophical thinking in the 20th century. G�del is best known for three theorems about the strengths and theoretical limitations of mathematical systems. This book provides the proof for the third of his three theorems. Included is a new foreword by Richard Laver, Professor of Mathematics at the University of Colorado at Boulder, written mainly for the non-mathematician. He explains in simple, non-technical terms the concepts, results and motivations which led up to G�del's theorems, thus aiding in an appreciation of the high significance of this area.
