A Crash Course in the Mathematics of Infinite Sets

This is pretty much what it says it is. This course is written in a lively and engaging style. It starts with elementary set theory and quickly builds up to a discussion of the Continuum Hypothesis with quite a few proofs along the way.

A Crash Course in the Mathematics of Infinite Sets is simply written and easy to understand. It starts by clearing up needed definitions, such as cardinality, subsets, natural numbers, and integers. The definitions are clearly written. Then it goes through a long list of 24 theorems, some of which are hard to understand without prior knowledge. Overall, this would be a good source to use if writing a paper of Infinite Sets.
