This book uses elementary logical and mathematical means to
philosophical end: elucidation of the notions of subjective
probability and subjective desirability or utility which form the
core of Bayesian decision theory.

Computability and Logic has become a classic because of its
accessibility to students without a mathematical background and
because it covers not simply the staple topics of an intermediate
logic course, such as Godel's incompleteness theorems, but also a
large number of optional topics, from Turing's theory of
computability to Ramsey's theorem. This 2007 fifth edition has been
thoroughly revised by John Burgess. Including a selection of
exercises, adjusted for this edition, at the end of each chapter,
it offers a simpler treatment of the representability of recursive
functions, a traditional stumbling block for students on the way to
the Godel incompleteness theorems. This updated edition is also
accompanied by a website as well as an instructor's manual.
