I purchased Mac Lane's “Categories for the Working Mathematician” a long time ago, but my copy is in near mint condition. Francis Borceux, Handbook of Categorical Algebra, vol 1–3. Mac Lane's proof of the coherence theorem for monoidal categories (as given in Categories for the Working Mathematician) is a classic illustration of the technique. Benjamini Y, Hochberg Y (1995) Controlling the false discovery rate: A practical and powerful approach to multiple testing. This paper discusses the notion of necessity in the light of results from contemporary mathematical practice. (Via Google books, here is the description of this in MacLane's Categories for the Working Mathematician). Mac Lane S (2000) Categories for the working mathematician. John Armstrong - November 20, 2009. Saunders Mac Lane, Categories for the working mathematician, 2nd ed. Two descriptions of necessity are considered. Bodo Pareigis, Categories and functors. Of course, this is easier said than done, and we need considerable practice in working out all the book-keeping and figuring out all the universal properties for all the categories involved, before we can start performing "magic" with questions of existence brought to light the ease with which people identify isomorphism with identity: a number of people wrote to remind me that uniqueness is common in many mathematical contexts, e.g. I have always been intrigued by the tension between the fact that CT aims to abstract away from specific details of mathematical spaces and the fact that lots of the theory of CT seems to be about specific categories (the category of sets and functions between them, etc) and/or about generalizations of specific objects (eg, truth values in .. So I got pretty fired-up about it then, and started to read Mac Lane's Categories for the Working Mathematician.
