Godel's Incompleteness Theorem, which proved that no formal mathematical system can demonstrate every mathematical truth, is a landmark of modern thought. It's a simple but profound statement... MacArthur Fellow and Whiting¨Cwinning novelist and philosopher Goldstein ... does a magnificent job of exploring its rich philosophical implications. Godel insisted that the theorem buttresses a Platonist conception of a transcendent mathematical reality that exists independent of human logic.
