This videotaped expository lecture presents a fascinating look at the use and theory of nonwellfounded sets. Illuminating the subject with clarity of exposition and with carefully chosen examples, Barwise first motivates the subject with a discussion of applications, then moves on to the theory. This lecture is accessible and appealing to anyone with a background in undergraduate mathematics. (Louisville, KY, 1990)
