Free textbook: Abstract and Concrete Categories: The Joy of Cats
Abstract and Concrete Categories was published by John Wiley and Sons, Inc, in 1990, and after several reprints, the book has been sold out and unavailable for several years. We now present an improved and corrected version as an open access file. This was made possible due to the return of copyright to the authors, and due to many hours of hard work and the exceptional skill of Christoph Schubert, to whom we wish to express our profound gratitude. The illustrations of Edward Gorey are unfortunately missing in the current version (for copyright reasons), but fortunately additional original illustrations by Marcel Erné, to whom additional special thanks of the authors belong, counterbalance the loss.
Open access includes the right of any reader to copy, store or distribute the book or parts of it freely. (See the GNU Free Documentation License at the end of the text.)

I came to your article in a terrifically circuitous fashion (via a serendipitous Google Image search), but am so glad that I did. Now it appears I'll end up spending the rest of my day reading all your links and references. I work in areas of information theory and molecular biology and have been filling in my knowledge of mathematics over time. Having just finished up six months of work in Lie groups and algebras, it would appear that category theory is the next sandbox in which I should play. Thanks especially for the textbook references as well as the journal articles!

On my way out to the last Lie Groups class of quarter. Wishing there was something else as entertaining on the horizon. #LieGroups #Math
