Editorial Reviews

A text that reflects the current progress in an important segment of descriptive set theory. Its main focus is measure and category in set theory, most notably asymmetry results. The volume consists of three interconnected parts: results that can be proven in ZFC and its extensions, independent results, and the "tools" used in investigating the first two parts. Assumes comfortability with the basic set theoretical techniques. Annotation c. Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
