The Enigma of Completeness - A Journey Through the Labyrinth of Mathematical Logic

Pasquale De Marco

Sinossi

In the realm of mathematics and logic, there exists an enigma that has captivated and challenged the greatest minds for generations: the enigma of completeness. This book embarks on a profound journey to unravel this enigma, venturing into the labyrinth of mathematical logic and exploring the revolutionary implications of Gödel's incompleteness theorems.

Kurt Gödel, a visionary mathematician of the 20th century, shattered the long-held belief in the absolute completeness of formal systems with his groundbreaking incompleteness theorems. These theorems revealed that within any axiomatic system, there will always exist true statements that cannot be proven within that system. This startling discovery exposed the inherent limitations of formal logic and raised fundamental questions about the nature of truth, knowledge, and the limits of human reason.

This book delves into the profound significance of Gödel's incompleteness theorems, examining their impact on various fields of intellectual inquiry, from philosophy and computer science to artificial intelligence and the nature of reality itself. It explores the quest for alternative foundations of mathematics, the implications for the foundations of computer science, and the potential of artificial intelligence in mathematical discovery.

With clarity and rigor, this book unravels the intricate tapestry of mathematical logic, making it accessible to readers from all backgrounds. It illuminates the beauty and elegance of Gödel's theorems, while also exploring their profound implications for our understanding of the universe and our place within it.

Join us on this intellectual odyssey as we navigate the labyrinth of completeness, unraveling the mysteries that lie at the heart of mathematical logic. Prepare to be challenged, intrigued, and enlightened as we explore the enigma of completeness, a testament to the boundless capacity of the human mind to grapple with the fundamental questions of existence.

This book is an essential read for anyone interested in the foundations of mathematics, logic, philosophy, or the nature of reality. It is a profound exploration of one of the most important intellectual discoveries of the 20th century, and its implications for our understanding of the universe and our place within it.

Disappearance of the Surcouf...

Editors Charles River

When the Surcouf launched in 1929, it was a technological marvel. This wasn’t a conventional submarine at all, but a 3,300-ton, 300-foot-long submersible light cruiser. Armed not just with torpedoes but also a pair of eight-inch guns, the Surcouf had a range of over 10,000 miles and was equipped with a seaplane in a hanger and a prison capable of holding up to 40 prisoners. When it was launched, the submarine looked like something out of the novels of Jules Verne, and many people believed it would make all existing submarines (and many surface warships) obsolete. However, by the time France found itself at war with Nazi Germany in 1939, the Surcouf was outdated and basically irrelevant, though it was still in active service with the French Navy.
When France was defeated by Nazi Germany in June 1940, the majority of French troops and warships ceased fighting. However, some relocated to Britain, the only nation still fighting Germany, to join Free French forces under the command of the charismatic General Charles De Gaulle. The crew of the Surcouf joined the Free French Navy and served from late 1940 to February 1942, when she called in at the British port of Bermuda before sailing for the island of Tahiti, French Polynesia, in the South Pacific. On February 12, the Surcouf left Bermuda en route for Tahiti via the Panama Canal and was never seen again.
There have been many theories about what might have happened to the Surcouf and her 130-man crew, ranging from an accidental collision to sabotage and even accidental (or deliberate) attacks by her allies. As a result, the fate of the Surcouf has become one of the most enduring and baffling maritime mysteries, and it still generates a great deal of debate.

¡Ándale Prieta! - A Love Letter...

Yasmín Ramírez

When I tell people who don’t speak Spanish what “prieta” means—“dark” or “the dark one”—their eyes pop open and a small gasp escapes. … How do I tell them that now, even after the cruelty of children, “Prieta” means love? That each time “Prieta” fell from my grandmother’s lips, I learned to love my dark skin. My Ita called me Prieta. When she died, she took the name with her. 
 
Yasmín Ramírez spent her twenties feeling lost—working an intensely taxing retail job and turning to bars for comfort. When her beloved grandmother dies, she comes home to El Paso, Texas, where people know how to spell her accented name. As she pulls her life together, she finds comfort in celebrating her Ita, a resilient matriarch who was far from the stereotypical domestic abuelita. Yasmín remembers Ita wistfully singing old Mexican rancheras, her mastectomy scar, the hours they spent watching boxing matches at a dive bar, and of course, Ita’s lesson on how to ball a fist for a good punch. Interviewing her mom and older  
sister, Yasmín learns even more about why her Ita was so tough—the abusive men, the lost pregnancies, and the toil of almost literally back-breaking jobs. In time, the writer finds her grandmother calling her forth to live with the same bravery and tenacity: “¡Ándale, Prieta!”

The Prince

Niccolò Machiavelli

The Prince (Italian: Il Principe [il ˈprintʃipe]; Latin: De Principatibus) is a 16th-century political treatise written by the Italian diplomat, philosopher, and political theorist Niccolò Machiavelli in the form of a realistic instruction guide for new princes. As a remarkable general theme, The Prince appears to take it for granted that immoral acts are justified if they can help achieve political glory. 
From Machiavelli's correspondence, a version was apparently being written in 1513, using a Latin title, De Principatibus (Of Principalities). However, the printed version was not published until 1532, five years after Machiavelli's death. This was carried out with the permission of the Medici pope Clement VII, but "long before then, in fact since the first appearance of The Prince in manuscript, controversy had swirled about his writings". 
Although The Prince was written as if it were a traditional work in the mirrors for princes style, it was generally agreed as being especially innovative. This is partly because it was written in the vernacular Italian rather than Latin, a practice that had become increasingly popular since the publication of Dante's Divine Comedy and other works of Renaissance literature.  Machiavelli illustrates his reasoning using remarkable comparisons of classical, biblical, and medieval events, including many seemingly positive references to the murderous career of Cesare Borgia, which occurred during Machiavelli's own diplomatic career.
