A chapter in Mathematical Logic and Its Applications, 1987, pp 23-36 from Springer

Abstract: Abstract Since the end of last century an investigation of the methods of mathematical reasoning has been gaining momentum; due to that development the field of mathematical logic has originated and advanced. Kurt Gödel was one of those who contributed most to its forming and progress. Information about Gödel’s life is still comparatively scanty. Most likely that is due to the secluded and simple way of life he led.
