In the Acknowledgement section the author thanks Professor Church "for his kind assistance and encouragement during the preparation of this thesis." This is the 1964 original edition. In 1970 POWERS OF REGULAR CARDINALS was printed in ANNALS OF MATHEMATICAL LOGIC vol. 1 no. 2 pp. 139-178. J. Barkley Rosser reviewed it in THE JOURNAL OF SYMBOLIC LOGIC vol. 40 no. 3 Sep. 1975 pp. 460-461. This 1964 edition is one of several dozen books from Alonzo Church's personal library that we were lucky enough to purchase at auction in New Jersey. Several of the books contain his signature or a presentation inscription to him. Unfortunately this copy does not have those signs of his ownership. But please check our inventory for several others that do. Alonzo Church 1903 - 1995 was professor of mathematics at Princeton University 1929-1967 and of mathematics and philosophy at UCLA 1967-1990. He was the founding editor of the JOURNAL OF SYMBOLIC LOGIC. Among his most influential contributions are Church's Theorem Church's Thesis and the Lambda Calculus. His work was of major importance in mathematical logic recursion theory theoretical computer science and functional programming languages in general. Professor Church's creation of lambda calculus was the foundation for the LISP programming language and provided the semantic model for ALGOL. He was elected to the National Academy of Sciences British Academy and the American Academy of Arts and Sciences. Church is regarded by many as the greatest American logician of the 20th century.
