In this pap er we try to give an up to date account of certain asp ects of the the
ory of ortholattices abbreviated OLs orthomo dular lattices abbreviated OMLs
and mo dular ortholattices abbreviated MOLs not hiding our own research in
terests
Since most of the questions we deal with have their origin in Universal Alge
bra we start with a chapter discussing the basic concepts and results of Universal
Algebra without pro ofs In the next three chapters we discuss mostly with pro ofs
the basic results and standard techniques of the theory of OMLs In the remaining
