Böcker av Dirk van Dalen

Dutch mathematician and philosopher Luitzen Egbertus Jan Brouwer belonged to a special class of genius and was one of the key players in topology. This book details of the life and work of this complex and often controversial genius.

Dirk van Dalen's popular textbook Logic and Structure, now in its fifth edition, provides a comprehensive introduction to the basics of classical and intuitionistic logic, model theory and Goedel's famous incompleteness theorem. The discussion of classical logic is concluded with a concise exposition of second-order logic.
