This excellent primer  illustrates more than 150 solutions and proofs, thoroughly explained  in clear language. The generous historical references and anecdotes  interspersed throughout the text create interesting intermissions that  will fuel readers' eagerness to inquire further about the topics and  some of our greatest mathematicians. The author guides readers through  the process of solving enigmatic proofs and problems, and assists them  in making the transition from problem solving to theorem proving.  \u003cbr\u003e  At once a requisite text and an enjoyable read, \u003cem\u003eMathematical\u003c\/em\u003e  \u003cem\u003eProblems and Proofs\u003c\/em\u003e is an excellent entrée to discrete  mathematics for advanced students interested in mathematics,  engineering, and science.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublished by: Springer\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublication Date: 1998-10-31\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFormat: Hardcover\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eISBN-13: 9780306459672\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDOI: 10.1007\/b115295\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDimensions: 235cm x155cm\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePages: 220\u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"Springer US","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46544944496780,"sku":"9780306459672","price":98.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/9780306459672.jpg?v=1775758127","url":"https:\/\/fh90cf-fv.myshopify.com\/products\/9780306459672","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
