Abstract
The reader is expected to be familiar with naive set theory up to the level of the first half of [11]. In general we shall adopt the notations and definitions of that book; however, we make two exceptions. First, the word function will in this book have a very restricted meaning, and what Halmos calls a function, we shall call a mapping or a set mapping. Second, we follow Bourbaki and call mappings that are one-to-one (onto, one-to-one and onto) injective (surjective, bijective).
