Book Reviews of Infinity and the Mind

Book Review: A book that may encourage to read more about set/logic
Summary: 4 Stars

I have read the book in connection with AI. I find the chpater four ( Robots and Souls) is well written. Excursion 2 gives more details about Godel's incompeteness theorem. Chapter one gives the excitment. Chapter three ` the unnameable' was very diffcult for me. A very good book for philosophically minded.
