On the Foundations of Combinatorial Theory: Combinatorial Geometries

by Gian-Carlo Rota and Henry H. Crapo

It has been clear within the last ten years that combinatorial geometry, together with its order-theoretic counterpart, the geometric lattice, can serve to catalyze the whole field of combinatorial theory, and a major aim of this book, now available in a preliminary edition, is to present the theory in a form accessible to mathematicians working in disparate subjects. Earlier studies have been one-sided or restricted in their point of view; they were...
