The Joy of Sets: Fundamentals of Contemporary Set Theory Hardcover - 1993

by Keith Devlin


From the publisher

This new edition has been completely rewritten; it includes a new chapter on non-well-founded set theory, a subject of considerable importance in computer science. Written in an easy-to-follow, intuitive style, the book is intended for upper-level undergraduate or beginning graduate students in mathematics, logic, philosophy, or computer science.

First line

Zermelo-Fraenkel set theory, which forms the main topic of the book, is a rigorous theory, based on a precise set of axioms.
