The text simultaneously promotes the goals of a ``survey'''' course, describing the intriguing questions and insights fundamental to many diverse areas of mathematics, including Logic, Abstract Algebra, Number Theory, Real Analysis, Statistics, Graph Theory, and Complex Analysis.  The main objective of A Transition to Advanced Mathematics is to bring about a deep change in the mathematical character of students -- how they think and their fundamental perspectives on the world of mathematics.

It would provide useful background or supplementary reading for a student progressing from A-level to undergraduate study, where the new emphasis on proof and understanding as oppposed to computation can prove something of an obstacle to many. * Robert Low, Mathematics Today *\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePREFACE; ANSWERS TO QUESTIONS; ANSWERS TO ODD NUMBERED EXERCISES; INDEX OF ONLINE RESOURCES; BIBLIOGRAPHY; INDEX","brand":"Oxford University Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51766903112023,"sku":"9780195310764","price":99.75,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0817\/1739\/5799\/files\/9780195310764.jpg?v=1758711629","url":"https:\/\/bookcurl.com\/products\/a-transition-to-advanced-mathematics-9780195310764","provider":"Book Curl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
