Description
The modern theory of algebras of binary relations, reformulated by Tarski as an abstract, algebraic, equational theory of relation algebras,
has considerable mathematical significance, with applications in various fields: e.g., in computer science---databases, specification
theory, AI---and in anthropology, economics, physics, and philosophical logic.
This comprehensive treatment of the theory of relation
algebras and the calculus of relations is the first devoted to a systematic development of the subject.
Audience
Mathematicians, logicians, computer scientists, and philosophers
