ImperfectionA book that covers the life, world, and achievements of Goedel, the greatest logician since Aristotle and the 20th centurys greatest mathematician, by Time magazine. The author, Rebecca Goldstein, combines the techniques of a novelist with the insights of a philosopher of science to make Goedells theorem and its dazzling consequences easier to understand, as well as to portray the life of a weird and desperate genius. Godel, who was also the closest intellectual associate to Einstein in his later years, had an insane temperament, lived in paranoid logic, and eventually suffered a tragic death. Despite this irrational life, he firmly believed in reason. Ingenious proof reveals that a sufficiently complex system, that is, a system that mathematicians want to use, is true and unprovable. Time
