The book consists of five parts and two appendices. The first part is devoted to purely syntactical methods based on Gentzen’s cut-elimination theorem. The second part deals with intuitionistic arithmetic, where Kleene’s realizability method plays a central role. The third part is concerned with algebraic models and completeness theorems for them. The fourth part, which is a survey in nature, deals with the principles of intuitionistic analysis. The fifth part is concerned with the cut-elimination theorem in intuitionistic simple theory of types with an extensionality rule. rv: H.Nishimura
