Kreiseliana (1996) Kreiseliana (1996)

Kreiseliana is a multifaceted collection of essays, reminiscences and professional papers that combine to create a tribute to Georg Kreisel, the influential logician and mathematical philosopher, who was a longtime friend and confident of Wittgenstein and Gödel.

The book aims to communicate to a wider circle his personal and intellectual influence, through the contributions of the biologist Francis Crick, the mathematician Freeman Dyson, the logician Solomon Feferman, and of a number of other friends, collaborators and disciples of one of the great minds of the 20-th Century.

A good antidote against dessicated academics![...]
