| Beschreibung: | IN 1959 I lectured on Boolean algebras at the University of Chicago. A mimeographed version of the notes on which the lectures were based circulated for about two years; this volume contains those notes, corrected and revised. Most of the corrections were suggested by Peter Crawley. To judge by his detailed and precise suggestions, he must have read every word, checked every reference, and weighed every argument, and I am very grateful to hirn for his help. This is not to say that he is to be held responsible for the imperfections that remain, and, in particular, I alone am responsible for all expressions of personal opinion and irreverent viewpoint. P.
