Horizons of Truth: Logic, Foundations of Mathematics, and the Quest for Understanding the Nature of Knowledge

These two grants supported an international symposium in Vienna, Austria, organized by the Kurt Gödel Society commemorating the centennial of Kurt Gödel's birth. More than twenty distinguished scholars in mathematics, logic, physics, philosophy, and philosophical theology debated the life and ideas of Kurt Gödel, and the continuing implications of his seminal contributions. The program also included a young scholars competition. An edited volume is being prepared for publication.
