Set Theory: An Open Introduction is a brief introduction to the philosophy of set theory. It is written for students with a little background in logic, and some high school mathematics. By the end of this book, students reading it might have a sense of:
This repository/directory only contains the LaTeX files and illustrations needed to typeset the textbook Set Theory, which in turn requires the Open Logic Text. Most of the material making up the text comes from Tim Button’s Open Set Theory.
You can download the PDF from the Open Logic builds site.
You can order a hardcopy of the Fall 2021 edition from Amazon [US|CA|UK|DE|AU].
To install and compile:
courses/
courses/set-theory
.If you use git
, this should do it:
# git clone https://github.com/OpenLogicProject/OpenLogic.git
# cd OpenLogic/courses
# git clone https://github.com/OpenLogicProject/set-theory.git
# cd ../assets
# git clone https://github.com/OpenLogicProject/photos.git
Inside courses/set-theory
, you can now compile:
# pdflatex settheory-screen
or just # make
if you have latexmk
installed. (You’ll also have to do bibtex settheory-screen
for the bibliography.)
The file settheory-screen.tex
produces a color version
of the text with smaller margins for screen reading.
The file loads settheory.tex
, which contains the actual
material. It in turn includes other files, most of them from the
OpenLogic
repository. So you won’t get a complete book
unless you download into the right subdirectory of and compile from
there.
