Basic Properties of The Turing Degrees
- Every Turing degree is countably infinite, that is, it contains exactly sets.
- There are distinct Turing degrees.
- For each degree a the strict inequality a < a′ holds.
- For each degree a, the set of degrees below a is at most countable. The set of degrees greater than a has size .

“The “universal moments” of child rearing are in fact nothing less than a confrontation with the most basic problems of living in society: a facing through one’s children of all the conflicts inherent in human relationships, a clarification of issues that were unresolved in one’s own growing up.
