(Dale Jacquette, Phenomenological Reviews, reviews.ophen.org, April, 2016) If van Atten is right on this, and he sets out a strong case for it, then the combination of Godel's ideas and phenomenology was ... still born. (Prof. Dr.Manuel Bremer, Phenomenological Reviews, reviews.ophen.org, January, 2016) The book collects together most of the essays on Kurt Godel that Mark van Atten has either authored or co-authored. ...
