This volume contains English translations of Goedel's chapters on
logicism and the antinomies and on the calculi of pure logic, as
well as outlines for a chapter on metamathematics. It also
comprises most of his reading notes. This book is a testimony to
Goedel's understanding of the situation of foundational research in
mathematics after his great discovery, the incompleteness theorem
of 1931. It is also a source for his views on his logical
predecessors, from Leibniz, Frege, and Russell to his own times.
Goedel's "own book on foundations," as he called it, is essential
reading for logicians and philosophers interested in foundations.
Furthermore, it opens a new chapter to the life and achievement of
one of the icons of 20th century science and philosophy.
