New York: Blaisdell Publishing Company, 1961. Paperback. B&W Illustrations; This is a trade paperback book. This book is in Very Good+ condition and was issued without a dust jacket. The spine joints, spine ends, and corners of the book covers have some light bumping and rubbing. The text pages are clean and bright. "In 1948 Vorob’ev began his postgraduate studies at the Steklov Mathematical Institute (Leningrad Branch) of the USSR Academy of Sciences, where A. A. Markov, Jr, was his supervisor. There he started to studyconstructive mathematical logic—a rapidly developing field at that time. In 1952 he received his Candidate of Science degree in mathematics forhis thesis on logical deduction rules in systems with a strong negation. In 1952 Vorob’ev joined the Steklov Mathematical Institute as a juniorresearch associate. Here he again changed the domain of his studies. Hisresearch concerned both algebra and probability theory. In 1954 he published a paper on summation of random variables on finite Abelian groups. This paper was a source of further investigations by various authors."
