From the reviews: "‘The aim of the present book is to introduce the reader to the theory of function algebras and to give the latest state of research for some selected fields.’ … This book will be useful for anyone interested in universal algebra and algebraic foundations of many-valued logics." (Béla Csákány, Acta Scientiarum Mathematicarum, Vol. 74, 2008)
