width210 height160 div This is an exceptionally good introduction
to the core definitions and theorems of naive set theory.That is to
say, it is written in an informal style, yet remains adequate for
building deeper knowledge later. I found the treatment somewhat
idiosyncratic in that it gives some insights about how Kaplansky
views sets and some natural proofs of their properties. Note this
last point suggests the following analogy youre in college and you
take two logic classes just because you love logic so much.
However, both are taught by different teachers. One teacher simply
goes from the text the other one hands out a set of lecture notes
that is very personal and interesting and adds insight to the
textbook. Kaplanskys work is this set of lecture notes. It is also
rare to find coverage of metric spaces in a work of its kind, which
adds to its appeal. This book is brief, but is not intended to pry
beyond the bare essentials the written style is ideally suited to
this end. A pleasure to read!keywordAms Sandwich
