For the purpose of this review, a strict compatibility chain in an orthomodular lattice means a finite sequence of noncentral elements each of which is compatible with its immediate successor. Say that two elements are strict compatibly related if they are both central or are linked by a strict compatibility chain; this is an equivalence relation on the orthomodular lattice. The authors prove that an orthomodular lattice containing at least two elements which are not so related is a direct product of a Boolean subalgebra and a horizontal sum of subalgebras which are not themselves horizontal sums. The proof uses results from commutator theory.
