Descriptive Set Theory and Forcing: How to Prove Theorems About Borel Sets the Hard Way (Lecture Notes in Logic) Arnold Miller 1995 edition

This advanced graduate course assumes some knowledge of forcing as well as some elementary mathematical logic, e.g. the Lowenheim-Skolem Theorem. The first half deals with the general area of Borel hierarchies, probing lines of enquiry such as the possible lengths of a Borel hierarchy in a separable metric space. The second half goes on to include Harrington's Theorem together with a proof and applications of Louveau's Theorem on hyperprojective parameters.
