Ordered structures have been increasingly recognized in recent years due to an explosion of interest in theoretical computer science and all areas of discrete mathematics. A key feature of ordered sets, one which is emphasized in the text, is that they can be represented pictorially. This book covers areas such as ordered sets and lattices.
Exposure to elementary abstract algebra and the rotation of set theory are the only prerequisites for this text. Lattices are also considered as algebraic structures and hence a purely algebraic study is used to reinforce the ideas of homomorphisms and of ideals encountered in group theory and ring theory. For the new edition, much has been rewritten or expanded and new exercises have been
