Reverse Mathematics is a program of research in the foundations of mathematics, motivated by the foundational questions of what are appropriate axioms for mathematics, and what are the logical strengths of particular axioms and particular theorems. The book contains 24 original papers by leading researchers. These articles exhibit the exciting recent developments in reverse mathematics and subsystems of second order arithmetic.

This book is intended as a sequel or partial update of Subsystems of Second Order Arithmetic (SOSOA). It consists of 24 original research papers exhibiting some of the exciting new developments in reverse mathematics and subsystems of second order arithmetic, subsequent to 1998.
