Review text

The example popularly known as ``The Sorgenfrey Line had its place in topological literature long before \textit{R. H. Sorgenfrey} [Bull. Am. Math. Soc. 53, 631-632 (1947; Zbl 0031.28302)] used it as an example to show that paracompactness is not productive. It existed as a subspace of an example P. S. Alexandroff called ``The Double Arrow Space and on one occasion he expressed the fact that he was a little peeved that Sorgenfrey has received all the credit. The author discusses the origins of both spaces and examines the controversy which existed mainly in the mind of P. S. Alexandroff. For the entire collection see [Zbl 0902.54001].
