Format:Taschenbuch
It is definitely not the best introductory book to read about either set theory or continuum hypothesis. I also very dislike its font - it is very ugly and all mathematical sentences in this book look like they are printed on a typewriter. But it is cheap, thanks to Dover. This book can be useful for anyone who is interested in the foundations of mathematics. You will enjoy the art of Cohen's derivation methods during the journey through different stuff.

All-time classic -- a "desert island book"
5. Juli 2003
Format:Taschenbuch|Von Amazon bestätigter Kauf
Paul Cohen's "Set Theory and the Continuum Hypothesis" is not only the best technical treatment of his solution to the most notorious unsolved problem in mathematics, it is the best introduction to mathematical logic (though Manin's "A Course in Mathematical Logic" is also remarkably excellent and is the first book to read after this one).
Although it is only 154 pages, it is remarkably wide-ranging, and has held up very well in the 37 years since it was first published. Cohen is a very good mathematical writer and his arrangement of the material is irreproachable. All the arguments are well-motivated, the number of details left to the reader is not too large, and everything is set in a clear philosophical context. The book is completely self-contained and is rich with hints and ideas that will lead the reader to further work in mathematical logic.
It is one of my two favorite math books (the other being Conway's "On Numbers and Games"). My copy is falling apart from extreme overuse.

Definitive and Brilliant
27. April 2007
Format:Taschenbuch
This is still the definitive work on set theory and the continuum hypothesis. Although extremely terse, it is wonderfully clear and unburdened by the technical and pedantic details that doom many books in the subject. If you cannot track this down right now be patient, the American Mathematical Society is going to be reprinting it.
Professor Cohen passed away in March of 2007, but thankfully this book remains as a testament to his genius. Originally trained as an analyst, he began working on the continuum hypothesis knowing almost nothing about logic or set theory. Within two years he mastered the subject and solved the greatest outstanding problem in the field (and arguably in all of mathematics). Read this book if you want to understand one of the deepest ideas in all of human thought.

A priceless gem
1. Dezember 2001
Format:Taschenbuch
An "older" original work of a great mathematican. Not the best book to read about the subject, but certainly a collectors item.
I happen to have one because my master thesis used it as a major reference. It's the one book that everyone interested in the foundations of mathematics should own - if you can still get one.
