Introduction

In the previous chapters, we have often referred to the concept of sets when dealing with numbers. For example, we have mentioned the set of natural numbers N, which is the set of counting numbers, the set of integers Z, which includes all positive and negative whole numbers, and so on.

Now, in this chapter, we deal with sets more formally, in the sense that we will focus on the set theory, as one of the fundamental theories of algebra.
