This quick yet detailed introduction to set theory and forcing builds the reader''s intuition about it as much as the mathematical detail. Intuition, rather absent from the existing literature on the subject, here plays a large role. The reader will not only learn the facts, but will understand why they are true and will be brought to ask: what else could be true? Having presented forcing in Part I, the second part of the book discusses contemporary issues in the theory of forcing. It includes known and some previously unpublished results as well as many open questions. This is ideal for those who want to start a research career in forcing but do not have a personal interlocutor. Obviously, not everything about forcing is in this book. Many references are included to help the reader further explore the vast amount of research literature available on the subject.
Industry Reviews
'... a rare book written for non-specialists that describes recent developments in set theory without assuming any knowledge. It will be an excellent resource for people who want to know current research in this field.' Tetsuya Ishiu, zbMATH Open
