From the reviews: "This text … deals with basic material in the areas of ordered sets and lattices and is aimed at advanced undergraduate or (more likely) beginning graduate students. … The choice and coverage of the material involved is excellent and the presentation is pleasantly lucid … . Throughout the text the arguments are clear and sound, and at the end of each chapter there is a good selection of exercises to whet the reader’s appetite. … this is a worthy addition to the lattice theory literature." (T. S. Blyth, Mathematical Reviews, Issue 2009 f)
