For quite some time now it has been clear that the inner regular development is muchmorefundamentalthantheouterone. MI Chapters I-III: THE FOUNDATIONS.

MI Chapter IV: THE CHOQUET INTEGRAL. In MI and in the first articles, the Choquet integral has been called the horizontal integral. The systematic and ex- clusive use of this integral is one of the basic reasons for a comprehensive and transparentdevelopment.The main new contributionsare (4) §1 and (12) devoted toChoquet’sideaon(sub/super)additivefunctionalsquotedabove,withthesurvey article(11).

In addition (3) Part II and (5), and also the survey part (10) §§7-8, are devoted to a comparison with the traditional Daniell-Stone and Bourbaki theories. The results are a clear confirmationforthenewconcepts. MI Chapter VI: TRANSPLANTATION THEOREMS. In the present contextthese theorems are an importantdevice in order to transfer inner premeasures and their descendantsfromonedomaintoanotherone.Thenewcontributionsare(7)interms of upper envelopes, (13) §2 needed for projective limits, and (25) which pursues ideasofDavidFremlinfortheconstructionofRadonmeasures. MI Chapter VII: PRODUCTS. In the new context the formation of products is completelynovel.Thefulltreatmentpresupposestheinnersituation,butsometimes also outerformationsare needed.The treatmentin MI, for which we also referto the survey part (10) §6, is restricted to two factors. The decisive point is that the explicitproductconstructionisperformedonthelevelofinnerpremeasuresviathe Choquet integral, and not on that of full measures. Then (2) treats the complete situationsoffiniteandinfiniteproducts;for• = τ theinfinitecaseisundercertain limitations.Atlastthearticle(21)returnstotheFubini-Tonellitheoremsandarrives atcomprehensivebutyetplainversions. MI Chapter VIII: APPLICATIONS. The most remarkable new article seems to be (6): it unites several traditional concepts of signed contents and measures via a new difference formation based on MI §23.
