His investigations shed light on what we can ultimately know about the universe and the very nature of life. In an infectious and enthusiastic narrative, Chaitin delineates the specific intellectual and intuitive steps he took toward the discovery. He takes us to the very frontiers of scientific thinking, and helps us to appreciate the art&#8212;and the sheer beauty&#8212;in the science of math. 242101 2005 Meta Math!: The Quest for Omega total:46|5:14|4:11|3:11|2:5|1:5| 46 162 84 12 1 0 false false Fri Mar 13 00:00:00 -0700 2009 Sat Jan 31 13:01:40 -0800 2009 Sat Jun 20 12:06:16 -0700 2009 more...]]> 3 0 false false Sun Jun 01 00:00:00 -0700 2008 Tue Jun 17 18:28:51 -0700 2008 Mon Jun 30 18:04:46 -0700 2008 more...]]> 5 0 false false Mon Feb 02 00:00:00 -0800 2009 Mon Feb 09 14:35:06 -0800 2009 Mon Feb 09 14:39:49 -0800 2009 more...]]> 3 0 false false Fri Jun 01 00:00:00 -0700 2007 Fri Jun 15 16:32:36 -0700 2007 Fri Jun 15 16:37:21 -0700 2007 more...]]> 0 0 false false Wed Jul 29 15:57:58 -0700 2009 Wed Jul 29 16:08:01 -0700 2009 4 0 false false Fri Jun 20 00:00:00 -0700 2008 Sun Jun 08 08:32:00 -0700 2008 Sun Jul 20 16:32:46 -0700 2008 more...]]> 5 0 false false Fri Jun 13 17:58:42 -0700 2008 Fri Jun 13 17:58:42 -0700 2008 5 0 false false Thu Jun 05 00:00:00 -0700 2008 Fri May 23 14:28:46 -0700 2008 Sat Jun 07 20:40:08 -0700 2008 4 0 false false Thu Mar 16 00:00:00 -0800 2006 Mon Mar 03 00:02:24 -0800 2008 Mon Mar 03 00:04:15 -0800 2008 3 0 false false Thu Mar 01 00:00:00 -0800 2007 Mon Mar 05 14:11:42 -0800 2007 Fri Mar 23 19:13:32 -0700 2007 4 0 false false Mon May 19 00:00:00 -0700 2008 Thu Sep 18 15:11:34 -0700 2008 Mon Aug 24 12:34:40 -0700 2009 5 0 false false Thu Jan 22 02:52:08 -0800 2009 Fri Jan 09 15:41:47 -0800 2009 Sat Sep 12 00:37:37 -0700 2009 0 0 false false Wed Nov 18 13:41:39 -0800 2009 Wed Nov 18 13:41:39 -0800 2009 5 0 false false Sun Nov 15 09:05:22 -0800 2009 Sun Nov 15 09:05:22 -0800 2009 0 0 false false Sun Nov 08 10:48:38 -0800 2009 Sun Nov 08 10:48:38 -0800 2009 3 0 false false Fri Oct 30 16:10:04 -0700 2009 Fri Oct 30 16:10:04 -0700 2009 2 0 false false Sun Oct 18 00:00:00 -0700 2009 Sun Oct 18 17:06:35 -0700 2009 Sun Nov 08 17:30:51 -0800 2009 0 0 false false Sun Oct 04 18:22:23 -0700 2009 Sun Oct 04 18:22:23 -0700 2009 4 0 false false Wed Sep 09 15:47:42 -0700 2009 Wed Sep 09 15:47:42 -0700 2009 3 0 false false Thu Jul 30 23:58:42 -0700 2009 Thu Jul 30 23:58:44 -0700 2009 http://www.goodreads.com/book_link/follow/8?book_id=249849
