Labyrinths Of Reason: Paradox, Puzzles And The Frailty Of Knowledge (1989)

About book Labyrinths Of Reason: Paradox, Puzzles And The Frailty Of Knowledge (1989)

For science nerds this is a good read. But it is dated. There are several logical paradoxes related to computational algorithm which modern computers have made irrelevant. Nevertheless most of what is in this book is quite relevant - and will remain so forever. This book covers almost exactly the same material as a college course in formal logic did that I took at Univ of Pennsylvania in 1971. It was interesting then - and remains interesting now. But it gets formal sometimes and can be slow going.
