Abstract
In preparation for his article on Russell's mathematical logic (1944), Godel read carefully Peano's Arithmetices Principia. His six pages of summary in the Gabelsberger shorthand contain a remarkable analysis of the formal structure of Peano's proofs which is diametrically opposed to the common view that Peano's treatise contained no formal deductive machinery.
