    MATHEMATICAL LOGIC FOR COMPUTER SCIENCE

    by Lu Zhongwan (Academia Sinica, Beijing)

    This book describes the aspects of mathematical logic related to computer sciences. The materials adopted in this book are intended to attend to both the peculiarities of logical systems and the requirements of computer science.
