A Concise Introduction to Pure Mathematics, Fourth Edition (Chapman Hall/CRC Mathematics)

Product Information

Ciò detto, non è che sia da buttare: è scritto in maniera molto scorrevole e quindi permette una lettura agevole. Students are taught how to understand and create proofs, but they are also given a glimpse of what it is all for.

It will just give you a superficial overview of a bunch of theories and theorems that you will encounter sooner or later, in better form, in your college years. To calculate the overall star rating and percentage breakdown by star, we don’t use a simple average.Non garantisco sulla difficoltà degli esercizi, che ovviamente non ho nemmeno provato a risolvere, non avendone al momento necessità alcuna; dateci comunque un occhio, perché alcuni sono carini almeno come formulazione. Accessible to all students with a sound background in high school mathematics, A Concise Introduction to Pure Mathematics, Fourth Edition presents some of the most fundamental and beautiful ideas in pure mathematics. Of course here the ambiguity reigns supreme, as it is not clear how to define the notion of "people living in Denmark" with precision, unless (and this should be specified when defining such a set) we add the sentence "according to a given population census".

Now in an updated and expanded third edition, A Concise Introduction to Pure Mathematics provides an informed and informative presentation into a representative selection of fundamental ideas in mathematics … . Moreover, the book is confusing at times: concepts are often not precisely defined, and if you have the gift of critical thinking you will find lots of places where the logic standards of the book are less than acceptable.I would imagine that this book must be perfect for maths undergraduates in their first year - or even in the summer before starting. Questo libro è fondamentalmente un'introduzione all'analisi matematica e all'algebra che si studiano (negli USA) nel primo anno di università, il che significa che è tranquillamente alla portata di un liceale nostrano dell'ultimo anno, tenuto conto che le dimostrazioni più complicate sono omesse. It covers not only standard material but also many interesting topics not usually encountered at this level, such as the theory of solving cubic equations, the use of Euler’s formula to study the five Platonic solids, the use of prime numbers to encode and decode secret information, and the theory of how to compare the sizes of two infinite sets. In addition to preparing students to go on in mathematics, it is also a wonderful choice for a student who will not necessarily go on in mathematics but wants a gentle but fascinating introduction into the culture of mathematics.
