Preface The Set Theory and its Applications Conference at York University was held in Toronto, Canada during the two weeks of August 10-21, 1987. It was attended by 80 mathematicians from 12 different countries. Financial support for this conference was provided by the Natural Sciences and Engineering Research Council under the auspices of the Canadian Mathematical Society and by York University through both the President's Office and the Office of the Dean of the Faculty of Arts. The organizers would like to express their thanks for this financial support without which the conference would not have been possible. The conference featured both contributed talks and a series of invited lectures on topics central to the study of set theory and its applications, particularly to general topology. The organizers would like to thank the invited speakers James Baumgartner, Arnold Miller, Andreas Blass, Neil Hindman, Stevo Todorcevic, Ronald Jensen, Hugh Woodin, Jan van Mill, Boban Velickovic, Menachem Magidor, A. V. Arhangel'skii and Mary Ellen Rudin for a series of highly informative and stimulating lectures. We would also like to thank the many speakers who contributed lectures to the conference, in many cases announcing new and important results for the first time. The organizers would like to thank the staff of the Mathematics Department of York University for their help in the organization of the conference. We would like, in particular, to thank Joan Young for her knowledgeable assistance. All of the artic
