Boy Proof

A Time Magazine 100 Best Young Adult Books of All Time Selection "This novel's funny first-person narrative will grab teens (and not just sci-fi fans) with its romance and the screwball special effects."– Booklist Meet Egg. Her real name is Victoria Jurgen, but she's renamed herself after the kick-ass heroine of her favorite sci-fi movie, Terminal Earth. Like her namesake, Egg dresses all in white, colors her eyebrows, and shaves her head. She always knows the right answers, she's always in control, and she's far too busy — taking photos for the school paper, meeting with the Science Fiction and Fantasy Club, and hanging out at the "creature shop" with her dad, the special-effects makeup wizard — to be bothered with friends, much less members of the opposite sex. As far as Egg is concerned, she's boy proof, and she likes it that way. But then Egg meets a boy named Max, a boy who's smart and funny and creative and cool . . . and happens to like Egg. Could this be the end of the world — at least as Egg knows it?

This is a classic, standard resource for collection building and on-the-spot readers advisory absolutely indispensable for school and public libraries.

The aim of this volume is to collect original contributions by the best specialists from the area of proof theory, constructivity, and computation and discuss recent trends and results in these areas. Some emphasis will be put on ordinal analysis, reductive proof theory, explicit mathematics and type-theoretic formalisms, and abstract computations. The volume is dedicated to the 60th birthday of Professor Gerhard Jäger, who has been instrumental in shaping and promoting logic in Switzerland for the last 25 years. It comprises contributions from the symposium “Advances in Proof Theory”, which was held in Bern in December 2013. ​Proof theory came into being in the twenties of the last century, when it was inaugurated by David Hilbert in order to secure the foundations of mathematics. It was substantially influenced by Gödel's famous incompleteness theorems of 1930 and Gentzen's new consistency proof for the axiom system of first order number theory in 1936. Today, proof theory is a well-established branch of mathematical and philosophical logic and one of the pillars of the foundations of mathematics. Proof theory explores constructive and computational aspects of mathematical reasoning; it is particularly suitable for dealing with various questions in computer science.

We all strive for validation & assurance that the “matter we occupy in space” really does matter! We stand for our own unique validation of approval; a light void from questionable debates of self-doubt, casting dark shadows from disbelief upon who we are and where we came from denial about when Our life of light begins! We all deserve PROOF! PROOF is our evidence our argument establishing our truth in the statement “our life began at conception!” PROOF is our cogency of evidence that compels acceptation by our mind; evidence enough to establish this personal thing we each must rest assured of which is our truth in our beginning. (O.L.B.A.C.) “PROOF” is your fact of life that has been overlooked, shunned and hushed up all our lives. Proof uncovers the fact of our “life-light” that began at our conception has been hidden under a cover of doubts, fear and the unknown and lastly simply ignorance until now. (O.L.B.A.C.) is the truth, the Holy Truth, so help me God; and God did help me and gave me the inspiration to write this book called “PROOF!”
