    In this expository paper, first the theory of Ramsey subsets of reals is developed via Ellentuck's definitions and ideas. Then, after the introduction of well-quasi-ordered sets, a natural definition of better quasi-order is given along with a proof of Nash-Williams theorem that transfinite sequences from a bqo set form a bqo set.
