In this paper we introduce the concept of Boolean near-rings. Using any Boolean ring with identity, we construct a class of Boolean near-rings, called special, and determine left ideals, ideals, factor near-rings which are Boolean rings, isomorphism classes, and ideals which are near-ring direct summands for these special Boolean near-rings.

Blackett [6] discusses the near-ring of affine transformations on a vector space where the near-ring has a unique maximal ideal. Gonshor [10] defines abstract affine near-rings and completely determines the lattice of ideals for these near-rings. The near-ring of differentiable transformations is seen to be simple in [7], For near-rings with geometric interpretations, see [1] or [2].
