TITLE: Where to read about Solovay's Model if Jech's book isn't working for me?
QUESTION [7 upvotes]: Jech's book on Set Theory is very often recommended and it is indeed an amazing collection of results. But to me it feels a bit like a reference book instead of a studying book; it seems to me you would use Jech's book if you're already fluent in a lot of the topics but want to brush up on something.
For example, A. Miller's notes "Infinite Ramsey Theory" (1996) where he talks about Ellentuck's topology and proves the Galvin-Prikry theorem were to me far more accessible and easy to read than Jech's chapter on this topic.
I am now interested on reading on Levy Collapsing and Solovay's model but as Jech's book hasn't been giving me a good experience so far so I'm looking for some recommendations on books where I can find this that would be more accessible than Jech's book. I've been studying forcing from Kunen's book "Set Theory" and I find Kunen's writing very clear and enjoyable, it saddens me that I couldn't find anything by Kunen on this topic.
Thank you.

REPLY [4 votes]: This is a beautiful and truly fundamental result, and so there are several good quality presentations. 
Try 

MR1321144. Kanamori, Akihiro. The higher infinite. Large cardinals in set theory from their beginnings. Perspectives in Mathematical Logic. Springer-Verlag, Berlin, 1994. xxiv+536 pp. ISBN: 3-540-57071-3,

or any of the newer editions (the 2003 second edition, or the 2009 paperback reprint). 
An alternative is 

MR1350295. Bartoszyński, Tomek; Judah, Haim. Set theory. On the structure of the real line. A K Peters, Ltd., Wellesley, MA, 1995. xii+546 pp. ISBN: 1-56881-044-X,

which also emphasizes results on ZFC and the projective hierarchy. 
And, of course, at some point I highly recommend you study Solovay's original presentation,

MR0265151. Solovay, Robert M. A model of set-theory in which every set of reals is Lebesgue measurable. Ann. of Math. (2) 92 1970 1–56. 

It is a very early result in the history of forcing, so there are a few details that look like oddities nowadays. But it also has many nice and useful ideas that more than reward the required effort. (For instance, a lot of recent work on large cardinals and forcing absoluteness requires a good understanding of the details of this result.)
Enjoy!
