I'm afraid I cannot; I'm a rank amateur who couldn't possibly understand his proof without another, oh, 5 years of study. I haven't encountered Yourgrau's book; I'll look for it. I can, however, strongly decommend one book: http://www.amazon.com/Incompleteness-Proof-Paradox-Godel-Discoveries/dp/0393327604/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1199761634&sr=1-2 Considering the pedigree of the author, you'd expect a good read, but it's bad writing. -gregg
