Discovering Modern Set Theory. I: The Basics (Graduate Studies in Mathematics, Vol 8) (Pt.1)
"These books aim to support first courses in rigorous set theory ... are thoroughly competent: well-organized, scrupulous in pointing out both mathematical and philosophical difficulties, carefully graded from relatively straightforward beginnings to demanding conclusions. The more interesting, and more demanding, approach is that of Just and Weese. These books are for those who not only want to learn mathematics, but want to think about mathematics." -- --Bulletin of the London Mathematical Society"Well written and userfriendly." ---- Zentralblatt MATH"Serious graduate students ... would profit from reading the book for the mathematical maturity they would gain in the process. The conversational, almost Socratic, style of exposition is well suited to giving students some insight into the process of doing mathematics as well as to the importance of asking the right questions ... Just and Weese's text would be ideally suited for ... students who are serious about studying set theory." ---- Journal of Symbolic Logic
