Elementary Set Theory is an extension of the lecture notes for the course 'Fundamental Concepts of Mathematics' given each year to first-year undergraduate students of mathematics in the University of Hong Kong since 1959. The purpose of this course, arranged in about twenty-five lectures, is to provide students of mathematics with the minimum amount of knowledge in logic and set theory needed for a profitable continuation of their studies. The addition of statement calculus and set theory to the Hong Kong University Matriculation Examination Syllabus in 1964 resulted in part of the course being taught in schools. This book, therefore, is intended for schools as well as for universities.
