Synopsis

Developed from university teaching, this volume sets out the foundations of category theory, covering categories, functors and natural transformations alongside the Yoneda lemma. It also introduces limits and colimits, adjunctions and monads, and revisits a wide range of mathematical examples through a categorical lens.

Only basic set theory and logic are assumed, making it suitable for readers looking for a structured route into the subject within science, mathematics and engineering.
