ambiguous. I would say "two distinct elements" if that's definitely what we mean. (I think it's a slightly controversial point whether there's a one-element Boolean algebra; in my usage there is not, but I'm not sure there's a complete consensus on it in the literature.)

I think it is typical (See for instance page 10 of "Introduction to Boolean algebras" by Paul Halmos) that in the definition of the algebra, $ 0$ and $ 1$ are distinct elements. Should I make the change?

being mentioned in the title, but not in the section itself? Are all homomorphisms also isomorphisms? That should be written then.
339:
Does this have a standard name? It follows immediately from distributivity, of course. Should it be mentioned in the article? --

I've added the definition of isomorphism; not every homomorphism is an isomorphism.

In English, "two elements 0 and 1" means "two" not "one or two".
