Daniele Mundici has proved in 1986 that the category of lattice-ordered commutative groups with strong unit (or unital commutative l-groups, for short) is equivalent to the category of MV algebras, by proving the existance of the quasi-inverse functors Gamma and  Xi. He has made the proof in one step, but the proof can be made in two steps, as it is sketched in this book, by introducing the intermediary category of positive-unital commutative l-groups and four functors.
