These letters constitute not only a unique source of biographical details of Gödel's life during this time, but are the most direct and intimate record of the innermost thoughts, personality and character, philosophical and political views, interests, and obsessions, of the brilliant thinker whose Incompleteness Theorems shook the mathematical world when he announced his groundbreaking result in 1930, at age 24.\u003cbr\u003e The first complete English translation of these letters, \u003ci\u003eEver Your Kurt \u003c\/i\u003e--a companion volume to editor Stephen Budiansky's highly acclaimed new biography of Gödel, \u003ci\u003eJourney to the Edge of Reason\u003c\/i\u003e (Norton and Oxford, 2021)--will be of interest to all who share a fascination with one of the most original and enigmatic minds of the twentieth century.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 384\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.79 x 9 x 6 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e July 17, 2021\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Books by splitShops","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51784111882528,"sku":"9798536268759","price":25.58,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0974\/9764\/5344\/files\/3344ded2fcc599fed649739fc602ebcb.webp?v=1780600151","url":"https:\/\/ebocreations.com\/products\/ever-your-kurt-the-intimate-family-letters-of-kurt-godel-paperback","provider":"The E-Book Oasis LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
