| Mar 20, 2012 at 13:27 | comment | added | Joel David Hamkins | Noah, although the book will include an introduction to forcing, the project is really meant for people who already know some forcing and some large cardinals---it is focused on the interaction of these two methods. So I am sorry that it may not be the book you seek. | |
| Mar 20, 2012 at 13:19 | comment | added | Noah Stein | Thanks; that looks interesting. Will one need to be well-versed in forcing in advance to read this book or could [part of] it be used as an introduction to the topic? | |

| Mar 20, 2012 at 13:09 | comment | added | Joel David Hamkins | Noah, thanks for the vote of confidence! See mathoverflow.net/questions/54232/a-book-you-would-like-to-write/… for a bit of explanation of my book project. | |
| Mar 20, 2012 at 13:02 | comment | added | Noah Stein | After all your great MO answers, I'd been hoping to hear you were writing a book covering forcing. What level is it aimed at? When might those of us who aren't your students be able to get a copy? | |
