It was great

4 stars

It's a fun book! It was kinda boring in the beginning probably because I already knew some symbolic logic, but it got much better later on. I recommend you to not skip the appendix, it has some more stuff like set theory.

It's a great book!

4 stars

It's a great introduction to mathematical logic and the philosophy of mathematics. Despite being written as a textbook (so far I know), it can be read like a normal non-fiction book, and you don't get that from every textbook. Except it gets really boring and confusing at times, but maybe that's just something on my end. Chapter 7 (Gödel's Incompleteness Theorem and Computability) is especially worth a read!

Also, did I mention that this book is really re-readable?

It's pretty good!

3 stars

The art especially is pretty avant-garde (is that the right word for it?), and the rhyming is really nice! It's a pretty cute story, and is definitely something to read when you have an art block!
