From the reviews: "'The aim of the present book is to introduce the reader to the theory of function algebras and to give the latest state of research for some selected fields.' ... This book will be useful for anyone interested in universal algebra and algebraic foundations of many-valued logics." (Bela Csakany, Acta Scientiarum Mathematicarum, Vol. 74, 2008)
