Dear Vasya,

The equivalence is given in Propositions 2.1 and 2.2 and Theorem 2.4.
We can introduce the logical connectives as primitives and then define
equality; or we can introduce equality as a primitive and define the
logical connectives in terms of =.  Either way gives the same set of
derivable judgements.
