TITLE: Where can I learn about the lattice of partitions?
QUESTION [8 upvotes]: A set $P \subseteq \mathcal{P}(X)$ is a partition of $X$ if and only if all of the following conditions hold:

$\emptyset \notin P$
For all $x,y \in P$, if $x \neq y$ then $x \cap y = \emptyset$.
$\bigcup P = X$

I have read many times that the partitions of a set form a lattice, but never really considered the idea in great detail. Where can I learn the major results about such lattices? An article recommendation would be nice.
I'm also interested in the generalization where condition 3 is disregarded.

I just stumbled upon it a couple of days ago, but it looks to be a great reference.
