Gödel, Escher, Bach.

Hofstadter entwickelt aus den Bereichen Logik, Molekularbiologie, Kunst, Computertechnik, Teilchenphysik und Philosophie ein gigantisches Mosaik, einen virtuos arrangierten Blick auf die Welt unter dem Winkel der mathematischen Logik. Dabei besticht er durch seine sachliche klare Darstellung, gepaart mit Amüsement und Witz. Trotz des schwierigen Themas sind keine Vorkenntnisse gefordert, die einzige Voraussetzung ist waches und geduldiges Interesse.
