GESPRÄCHE VORTRÄGE SÉANCEN KURT GÖDELS WIENER P...

This book provides detailed transcriptions of two notebooks written by Kurt Gödel in Vienna in
1937 38 in the nearly forgotten Gabelsberger shorthand system. The first of these notebooks 
simply entitled as the Protokoll-book  contains notes on conversations Gödel had with people
like Rudolf Carnap  Rose Rand  Friedrich Waismann  Else Frenkel-Brunswik  and many others who
were-at least to some degree-connected to the Vienna Circle. It also covers detailed
descriptions of the regular meetings organized by Edgar Zilsel. The second notebook includes
notes on a series of lectures given at the Vienna Psychological Institute  which was led by
Karl Bühler at the time. Both notebooks are part of Gödel's huge Nachlass kept at the Institute
for Advanced Study in Princeton  which consists of literally thousands of stenographic pages
covering logic and the foundations of mathematics  philosophy  physics  and theology. The now
transcribed and commented notes reveal a very personal side of Gödel which has-to a large
extent-been unknown to a mainly scientific-oriented audience. The book is of interest to people
wanting to learn about Gödel's personal background in Vienna in the late 1930s as well as his
keen interest in philosophy  psychology  and parapsychology.
