So i wish to acquaint myself with Gödel's incompleteness theorems. I am currently in 2nd year physics at university and so I have exposure to mathematics on a regular basis and little fear of formal proofs. I was wondering what the best way to go about introducing myself to Gödel, and if anyone could recommend a book on the subject i would be grateful.

Someone JUST recommended me a book, I turned it down as I am currently indulging in something else. I will get that and tell you what it is tomorrow though ^^

wikipedia :cool:

yes i know its not the most reliable method, but ive used it a lot to get the gist of stuff i dont know. i cant really say for myself though, since im not a physics major
