Abstract

This is the text of the hitherto unpublished article written at Stanford University and circulated in typescript in 1968 with the title page given below. “Recent” being no longer a true description of its contents, I publish it now under a timeless title by which it has been cited by other writers. In doing so, I have corrected the typographical errors in the original text but not the mathematical ones, to which attention is drawn instead in the notes on subsequent developments which will be found together with a supplementary bibliography at the end. The sign + in the text marks points on which those notes comment.

I record here my gratitude toDana Scott, then Professor of Logic at Stanford, who enabled me to spend eight stimulating months in California and whose brainchild the survey was.
