| May 6, 2012 at 9:04 | comment | added | Ali Kare | Also, in the new version the exercises are not collected at the chapter ends but rather sprinkled throughout the text. I find this to be better. Solving exercises at the spot facilitates learning. Also, facing a long list of exercises at the chapter end can be a bit daunting. (I wish Jech didn't move all exercises to the chapter ends in the third edition. What was he thinking?) | |
| May 6, 2012 at 9:03 | comment | added | Ali Kare | The 2011 version contains a lot more. Also the approach is a bit different. In the new version Kunen does not hesitate to use model theory and topology to get results. This condenses some parts of the old book. Still, the new book is 75 pages longer. This means that there is a lot of new material. Especially, the chapter on infinitary combinatorics contains much more (including sections on small cardinals and elementary submodels). The iterated forcing chapter contains a section on proper forcing. | |
