Dear all,
does anybody know where I can find this article (bibliographical references). Are there similar articles that may be interesting to read?
Thanks

Hi Goldbeetle! :smile:

I don't think it was a book, I think it was a contribution to the 1973 Style Manual of the American Mathematical Society.

I expect the current Style Manual is written by someone else, and that the edition with Halmos's work is out of print (but older professors may still have one! :wink:).
