What is A Course in Mathematical Logic for Mathematicians (Graduate Texts in Mathematics Book 53) about?

"A Course in Mathematical Logic for Mathematicians, Second Edition offers a straightforward introduction to modern mathematical logic that will appeal to the intuition of working mathematicians. The book begins with an elementary introduction to formal languages and proceeds to a discussion of proof theory. It then presents several highlights of 20th century mathematical logic, including theorems of Godel and Tarski, and Cohen's theorem on the independence of the continuum hypothesis. A unique feature of the text is a discussion of quantum logic." "The exposition then moves to a discussion of computability theory that is based on the notion of recursive functions and stresses number-theoretic connections. The text presents a complete proof of the theorem of Davis-Putnam-Robinson-Matiyasevich as well as a proof of Higman's theorem on recursive groups. Kolmogorov complexity is also treated."--Jacket.

Abstract: This fresh edition of the straightforward introduction to modern mathematical logic retains its appeal to the intuition of working mathematicians, yet along with the material from the first edition, it has fresh chapters, one of wh
