Book Description

Category theory abstractions are very challenging to apprehend correctly, require a steep leaing curve for non-mathematicians, and, for people with traditional naïve set theory education, a paradigm shift in thinking. The book uses LEGO® to teach category theory. The third part covers adjoint functors, diagram shapes and categories, cones and cocones, limits and colimits, pullbacks and pushouts.
