Title: He Dumbs It Down Way Too Much
Review: As the reviewer below, I too am a medical student/mathematican. I consider myself the foremost amature number theorist since Fermat and can read and translate ANY mathematical or philosophical document.Godel's proof is perhaps the most important document since the Declaration of Independence. It is a shame that Nagel treats it so lightly and debases it by trying to make it comprehensible to the common man. Only elite intellectuals like me are able to truly appreciate this document.If you would be into the Reader's Digest version of Being and Time, then read this book, but if you are up to the challenge, pick up the real thing. Be forewarned it will only be comprehensible to logicians and gifted medical students like me.
