Mar 9, 2015 at 16:15 | comment | added | Rami Grossberg | In my opinion the main problem with Shelah's book as a book for a beginner is that one needs to remember that it was written by the originator of a rich and deep theory within few years from creating the theory. Since the time Lascar wrote his excellent review I think that the admiration of Shelah's book just increased. However to recommend that book for a beginner is like suggetsing a begining student of Algebraic geometry to read Grothendick. In my opinion the two best books for beginners (focusing in first order theories) are the books by Chang & Keisler and Tent & Ziegler. | |
