Dear Categorists,
MIT Press recently published a book I wrote. The title is “The Outer Limits
of Reason: What Science, Mathematics, and Logic Cannot Tell Us.”
It has a lot about uncertainty, undecidability, insolvability,
intractability, independence etc.
While category theory is not mentioned in the book, the ideas all come from
category theory.
You can read more about it here
http://mitpress.mit.edu/books/outer-limits-reason (there is a podcast at the
bottom of the page.)

I think you might enjoy it.
All the best,
Noson
