What is Logical Foundations of Mathematics and Computational Complexity: A Gentle Introduction (Springer Monographs in Mathematics) about?

The two main themes of this book, logic and complexity, are both essential for understanding the main problems about the foundations of mathematics. __Logical Foundations of Mathematics and Computational Complexity__ covers a broad spectrum of results in logic and set theory that are relevant to the foundations, as well as the results in computational complexity and the interdisciplinary area of proof complexity. The author presents his ideas on how these areas are connected, what are the most fundamental problems and how they should be approached. In particular, he argues that complexity is as important for foundations as are the more traditional concepts of computability and provability. Emphasis is on explaining the essence of concepts and the ideas of proofs, rather than presenting precise formal statements and full proofs. Each section starts with concepts and results easily explained, and gradually proceeds to more difficult ones. The notes after each section present some formal definitions, theorems and proofs. __Logical Foundations of Mathematics and Computational Complexity__ is aimed at graduate students of all fields of mathematics who are interested in logic, complexity
