[FOM] New book: Kurt Gödel. Philosopher-Scientist

[WILLIAM TAIT]

It is good that this volume of essays based on the Godel notebooks, Max Phil, is published. It would be even better to have the translation from shorthand of the notebooks themselves available to everyone. I have found that Godel is better at explaining what he means than anyone else has so far been.
