• “This way round it can't be done, since one can have two abelian groups with the same 0 and minus but different plus functions.”

  Model Theory

• “Apart from the fact that it uses a formal first-order language, this is exactly the algebraists 'usual definition of the class of abelian groups; model theory formalises a kind of definition that is extremely common in mathematics.”
