Set Theory: An Introduction to Independence Proofs by Kenneth Kunen

Mathematical Logic for Mathematicians by Joseph R. Mileti. This is a draft of a book that can be used as an alternative to Enderton's book. If you have any comments or corrections on this draft, please let me know, as Mileti is still in the process of making revisions.

Herbert Enderton's commentary on his textbook.

Supplementary texts for the book Logic for Mathematics and Computer Science by Stanley N. Burris (Prentice Hall, 1998), including a text on the work of Cantor.

A home page for the Axiom of Choice by Eric Schechter of Vanderbilt University.

Meyer's (or Putnam's) Proof of the Existence of God (using the Axiom of Choice) by Alexander R. Pruss.

Turing's On computable numbers, with an application to the Entscheidungsproblem.

Reflections on Trusting Trust by Ken Thompson (1983 Turing Award lecture).

Gödel's On Formally Undecidable Propositions of Principia Mathematica and Related Systems.

Last time I taught this course, Luke Joyner typeset his notes and made them available. He asked that I add the disclaimer that these were posted as he took them, and may contain mistakes.
