The theory of lattices, initiated by Dedekind in the past centu ry, and revived in the thirties by Garrett Birkhoff, F. Klein-Barmen, ore, and von Neumann, is only in our time coming into its own.

The peculiarities of mathematical personality of the founders made lattice theory less welcome to the mathematical public of the time than it otherwise might have been.

"Professor Stern's book is the first to include the latest developments in the theory of semimodular lattices. His clear presentation, and his readable mathematical style, will make his treatise an indispensable vade mecum for lattice theorists, and for all discrete mathematicians everywhere."
