Gödel’s Incompleteness Theorem

391 views

No matter how many articles I read on this subject I cannot comprehend how it proves what it proves. I do well with words and rhetorics, philosophy and science – but as soon as you add numbers my mind goes blank. Not very helpful when those fields often rely on equations and models for explanations and proof. I can somewhat understand equations if explained in a simple or cohesive way – but if at all possible analogies or just word-centric explanations would be very helpful.

If you have the time, there is a fantastic book – a top 5 of all time for me – called Gödel, Escher, Bach that explains it in a wonderful and understandable way.
