Reviews

"...the categorical approach to mathematics has never been presented with greater conviction than it has in this book. The authors show that the use of categories in analyzing the set concept is not only natural, but inevitable." Mathematical Reviews "To learn set theory this way means not having to relearn it later... Recommended." Choice
