Sep 17, 2012 at 16:36 | comment | added | TLss | One problem with mathematical logic is that the point of much of the care that some seemingly obvious issues need to be addressed is lost without deep examples. I felt like Kunen's book on Set Theory and Independence Proofs, for example, was the first time I really truly understood some of the import of abstract notions of incompleteness one learns in logic. When you actually see models with CH and with not-CH, you see why this stuff matters in a way that is hard to just learning logic alone. Of course, you do need some logic to understand Kunen. | |

Nov 3, 2010 at 0:18 | comment | added | user6976 | @Keith: cicadas are discussed here: mathoverflow.net/questions/43397/…. Seriously though, engineers use propositional logic and all sorts of non-standard logics alot, in problems related to control of complex systems, for example. I once helped supervise a PhD student in engineering applying non-standard logics | |
Nov 2, 2010 at 23:08 | comment | added | KConrad | A standard logic course for math majors, that I've heard, but for engineering majors too? There must be some really philosophically inclined engineering students at Vanderbilt. :) | |
