'This book introduces efficiently Stone-Priestley duality theory for bounded distributive lattices, thereby laying solid mathematical foundations for applications in mathematics and computer science. Readers interested in the fields of domain theory and automata theory will see the general duality theory bearing fruit and opening doors to further applications.' Jorge Almeida, Universidade do Porto 'This book is a textbook and also a research monograph. For undergraduates there is the basic duality, for postgraduates, applications in algebra, topology and logic, and to theoretical computer science. Then, there are research themes to develop. The applications to CS are exciting and not published as a book before.' Mirna Džamonja, IRIF, CNRS-Université de Paris 'Duality is an indispensable tool in logic and theoretical computer science, and this book provides a great introduction to it. It is very pleasant to read, and does a wonderful job explaining the key ideas. It is highly recommended to anyone entering the field.' Yde Venema, Universiteit van Amsterdam
