Ladriere was a Belgian logician and philosopher, professor at the University of Louvain from 1959 to 1986, where he was chair of the Higher Institute of Philosophy from 1977 to 1985. He wrote his doctoral thesis in philosophy (1949), a second year thesis in mathematics on recursive functions (1951) and finally this monumental aggregation in philosophy of logic and mathematics (1957). The work deals not only with Gödel's famous first theorem of incompleteness, but also with related theorems, such as that of Church, Löwenheim-Skolem and Gentzen, for which he coined the expression, the title of his thesis: "The internal limitations of formalisms". The work remains a classic and was reissued after 40 years, under the direction of Robert Feys. Ships from Dinkytown in Minneapolis, Minnesota. Bestandsnummer des Verkäufers 254783
