In this book we will visit various such modes of knowledge and along the way, we would see all other kinds of mathematical objects, viewed through the lens of categories.

We will start with *set theory* in chapter 1, which is the original way to formalize different mathematical concepts.

|

|

Chapter 2 we will make a (hopefully) gentle transition from sets to *categories* while showing how the two compare and (finally) introducing the definition of category theory.
|
||||
|
||||
In the next two chapters, 3 and 4, we jump to two different branches of mathematics and will introduce their main means of abstraction, *groups and orders*, and we will see how they connect to the core category-theoretic concepts that we introduced earlier.

|

Chapter 5 also follows the main formula of the previous two chapters, and gets to the heart of the matter of why category theory is a universal language, by showing its connection with the ancient discipline of *logic*. As in chapters 3 and 4 we start with a crash course in logic itself.
