- I was just wondering if anyone knew of a comprehensible reference
- for a proof that there exist universal objects in categories satisfying
- certain conditions, which I don't really understand. The reference
- in Massey's Alg. Top.: An Intro. was to Bourbaki's Theory of Sets,
- but the terminology is essentially impenetrable for me. Perhaps there
- is a more modern treatment somewhere. Any input is welcomed!
