CMF), which was the principal sponsor of this conference. CMF was inaugurated in 1988 with a conference on Ordered Algebraic Structures. During the years between these two conferences the field has changed sufficiently, both from my point of view and, I believe, that of my co-organizer, W. Charles Holland, to make one wonder about the label \"Ordered Algebraic Structures\" itself. We recognized this from the start, and right away this conference carried a subtitle, or, if one prefers, an agenda: we concentrated on the one hand, on traditional themes in the theory of ordered groups, including model-theoretic aspects, and, on the other hand, on matters in which topology (more precisely C(X)-style topology) and category theory would play a prominent role. Plainly, ordered algebra has many faces, and it is becoming increas- ingly difficult to organize an intimate conference, such as the ones encouraged in the series sponsored by CMF, in this area on a broad set of themes. These proceedings reflect, accurately we think, the spirit of the conferees, but it is not a faithful record of the papers presented at the conference.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Springer","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":45283889348759,"sku":"9780792343776","price":11017.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9780792343776.webp?v=1769279534","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/ordered-algebraic-structures-proceedings-of-the-curacao-conference-sponsored-by-the-caribbean-mathematics-foundation-june-26-30-1995-9780792343776","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
