Relations Related to Betweenness: Their Structure and Automorphisms is written by Samson Adepoju Adeleke and published by American Mathematical Soc.. It's available with International Standard Book Number or ISBN identification 0821806238 (ISBN 10) and 9780821806234 (ISBN 13).

This volume is about tree-like structures, namely semilinear ordering, general betweenness relations, C-relations and D-relations. It contains a systematic study of betweenness and introduces C- and D- relations to describe the behaviour of points at infinity (leaves or ends or directions of trees). The focus is on structure theorems and on automorphism groups, with applications to the theory of infinite permutation groups.
