Abstract
Dexter Kozen is a famous theorist, who among many other wonderful things coinvented the notion of alternating Turing Machines. He also is the author of a terrific book [84]—his other books are pretty neat too—but this one is my favorite. Dexter also proved a controversial theorem decades ago about the power of diagonal methods in the separation of complexity classes. More on that later.
