    The Annual European Meeting of the Association for Symbolic Logic, generally known as the Logic Colloquium, is the most prestigious annual meeting in the field. Many of the papers presented there are invited surveys of recent developments, and the rest of the papers are chosen to complement the invited talks. This volume includes surveys, tutorials, and selected research papers from the 2004 meeting. Highlights include a tutorial survey of the recent highpoints of universal algebra, written by a leading expert; explorations of foundational questions; and a quartet of model theory papers giving an excellent reflection of current work in model theory, from the most abstract aspect 'abstract elementary classes' to issues around p-adic integration.

    • Contain contributions from leading experts in key areas of logic, including set theory, model theory, universal algebra, recursion theory, and philosophy of mathematics
