Primarily consisting of talks presented at a workshop at the MSRI during its "Logic Year" 1989-90, this volume is intended to reflect the whole spectrum of activities in set theory. The first section of the book comprises the invited papers surveying the state of the art in a wide range of topics of set-theoretic research. The second section includes research papers on various aspects of set theory and its relation to algebra and topology. Contributors include : J.Bagaria, T. Bartoszynski, H. Becker, P. Dehornoy, Q. Feng, M. Foreman, M. Gitik, L. Harrington, S. Jackson, H. Judah, W. Just, A.S. Kechris, A. Louveau, S. MacLane, M. Magidor, A.R.D. Mathias, G. Melles, W.J. Mitchell, S. Shelah, R.A. Shore, R.I. Soare, L.J. Stanley, B. Velikovic, H. Woodin
