Marc Notes: Includes bibliographical references and indexes. Review Quotes: "This is an important collection. The new research presented in this one book is roughly equivalent to a year's worth of articles in an important journal. The overall quality is impressive."Kevin C. Klement in: The Review of Modern Logic 1-2/2007/2008 "This is a well-done celebration of an important incident in the history of mathematics."P. Schmitt in: Monatshefte fur Mathematik 1/2006"Biographical Note: Godehard Link is Professor for Logic and Philosophy of Science at the University of Munich (Ludwig-Maximilians-Universitat Munchen), Responsible Lecturer on Logic at the reform curriculum MPhil and affiliate member of the Centre for Information and Language Processing (Centrum fur Informations- und Sprachverarbeitung (CIS))."
