About this book
This book presents an intuitive picture-oriented approach to the formative processes technique and to its applications. In the first part the authors introduce basic set-theoretic terminology and properties, the decision problem in set theory, and formative processes. The second part of the book is devoted to applications of the technique of formative processes to decision problems.
All chapters contain exercises and the book is appropriate for researchers and graduate students in the area of computer science logic.
