More about the book

The early twentieth century saw a significant effort to eliminate paradoxes in mathematics through Hilbert's program, aiming for a solid foundation for the discipline. However, this pursuit was dramatically challenged by Kurt Gödel, who demonstrated that achieving Hilbert's ambitions was impossible, revealing that contradictions are inherent in any mathematical system. This groundbreaking revelation reshaped the understanding of mathematics and its foundational principles.
