This informal introduction provides a fresh perspective on isomorphism theory, which is the branch of ergodic theory that explores the conditions under which two measure preserving systems are essentially equivalent. It contains a primer in basic measure Table of Contents: • Preface 1. Measure-theoretic preliminaries 2. Measure preserving systems, stationary processes 3. Martingales and coupling 4. Entropy 5.
