Talk:Zorn's Lemma

This proof is almost exactly the proof in the appendix of the Lang book I cited at the end of the article—I worked through that proof, digested it, and then typed it up here. Since this would seem to be a standard proof of the lemma (for instance, Wikipedia has an article on the Bouraki-Witt Theorem), I assume this is acceptable. If, however, I have erred, somebody should probably delete the entire proof of the lemma. —Boy Soprano II 13:46, 25 November 2007 (EST)
Okay, this argument also appears in
- Stoll, R., Set Theory and Logic, Dover, ISBN 0486638294,
so I assume that this argument is public-domain enough for the wiki. —Boy Soprano II 23:39, 25 November 2007 (EST)
