[For the entire collection see Zbl 0746.00055.] The author presents a survey of the theory of lattice-ordered algebras introduced by G. Birkhoff and R. S. Peirce. Special attention is given to the theory of special lattice-ordered algebras such as \(f\)-algebras, almost \(f\)-algebras and \(d\)-algebras. The relationships between these various algebras are discussed and examples, some of them new, are presented showing that the given results are best possible. The paper includes also a discussion of the complexification theory of lattice- ordered algebras. The author points out that the problem whether the Dedekind completion of an Archimedean lattice-ordered algebra can be made into a lattice-ordered algebra, extending the given ordered algebraic structure is still open. The paper also contains a very well selected set of references.
