This book provides a comprehensive exposition of the use of
set-theoretic methods in abelian group theory, module theory, and
homological algebra, including applications to Whitehead's Problem,
the structure of Ext and the existence of almost-free modules over
non-perfect rings. This second edition is completely revised and
udated to include major developments in the decade since the first
edition. Among these are applications to cotorsion theories and
covers, including a proof of the Flat Cover Conjecture, as well as
the use of Shelah's pcf theory to constuct almost free groups. As
with the first edition, the book is largely self-contained, and
designed to be accessible to both graduate students and researchers
in both algebra and logic. They will find there an introduction to
powerful techniques which they may find useful in their own work.
