Topics In Model Theory

This book has two chapters. The first is a modern or contemporary account of stability theory. A focus is on the local (formula-by-formula) theory, treated a little differently from in the author's book Geometric Stability Theory. There is also a survey of general and geometric stability theory, as well as applications to combinatorics (stable regularity lemma) using pseudofinite methods.The second is an introduction to 'continuous logic' or 'continuous model theory,' drawing on the main texts a
