Gut
Buch, das gelesen wurde, sich aber in einem guten Zustand befindet. Der Einband weist nur sehr geringfügige Beschädigungen auf, wie z.B. kleinere Schrammen, er hat aber weder Löcher, noch ist er eingerissen. Bei gebundenen Büchern ist der Schutzumschlag möglicherweise nicht mehr vorhanden. Die Bindung weist geringfügige Gebrauchsspuren auf. Die Mehrzahl der Seiten ist unbeschädigt, das heißt, es gibt kaum Knitter oder Einrisse, es wurden nur in geringem Maße Bleistiftunterstreichungen im Text vorgenommen, es gibt keine Textmarkierungen und die Randbereiche sind nicht beschrieben. Alle Seiten sind vollständig vorhanden. Genauere Einzelheiten sowie eine Beschreibung eventueller Mängel entnehmen Sie bitte dem Angebot des Verkäufers.

Reviews
From the reviews of the second edition:This is at heart a fairly conventional transition text, but it has a number of features that encourage students to practice and improve their mathematical reading, writing, and proving skills. … The book is primarily concerned with an exposition of those parts of mathematics in which students need a more thorough grounding before they can work successfully in upper-division undergraduate courses. … a mathematically-conventional but pedagogically-innovative take on transition courses. (Allen Stenger, The Mathematical Association of America, September, 2011), From the reviews of the second edition: "This is at heart a fairly conventional transition text, but it has a number of features that encourage students to practice and improve their mathematical reading, writing, and proving skills. ... The book is primarily concerned with an exposition of those parts of mathematics in which students need a more thorough grounding before they can work successfully in upper-division undergraduate courses. ... a mathematically-conventional but pedagogically-innovative take on transition courses." (Allen Stenger, The Mathematical Association of America, September, 2011), From the reviews of the second edition: "The book is written in an informal way, which could please the beginners and not offend the more experienced reader. A reader can find a lot of problems for independent study as well as a lot of illustrations encouraging him/her to draw pictures as an important part of the process of mathematical thinking." -- European Mathematical Society , September 2011 "Several areas like sets, functions, sequences and convergence are dealt with and several exercises and projects are provided for deepening the understanding. ...It is the impression of the author of this review that the book can be particularly strongly recommended for teacher students to enable them to catch and transfer the "essence" of mathematical thinking to their pupils. But also everybody else interested in mathematics will enjoy this very well written book. --Burkhard Alpers (Aalen), zbMATH "The book is primarily concerned with an exposition of those parts of mathematics in which students need a more thorough grounding before they can work successfully in upper-division undergraduate courses. ... a mathematically-conventional but pedagogically-innovative take on transition courses." --Allen Stenger, The Mathematical Association of America , September, 2011, From the reviews of the second edition: This is at heart a fairly conventional transition text, but it has a number of features that encourage students to practice and improve their mathematical reading, writing, and proving skills. … The book is primarily concerned with an exposition of those parts of mathematics in which students need a more thorough grounding before they can work successfully in upper-division undergraduate courses. … a mathematically-conventional but pedagogically-innovative take on transition courses.

Synopsis
This book, which is based on P lya's method of problem solving, aids students in their transition from calculus (or precalculus) to higher-level mathematics. The book begins by providing a great deal of guidance on how to approach definitions, examples, and theorems in mathematics and ends with suggested projects for independent study. Students will follow P lya's four step approach: analyzing the problem, devising a plan to solve the problem, carrying out that plan, and then determining the implication of the result. In addition to the P lya approach to proofs, this book places special emphasis on reading proofs carefully and writing them well. The authors have included a wide variety of problems, examples, illustrations and exercises, some with hints and solutions, designed specifically to improve the student's ability to read and write proofs. Historical connections are made throughout the text, and students are encouraged to use the rather extensive bibliography to begin making connections of their own. While standard texts in this area prepare students for future courses in algebra, this book also includes chapters on sequences, convergence, and metric spaces for those wanting to bridge the gap between the standard course in calculus and one in analysis., This book not only introduces proof techniques and other foundational principles of higher mathematics, but also helps students develop the necessary abilities to read, write and prove using mathematical definitions, examples and theorems., This book, which is based on Pólya's method of problem solving, aids students in their transition from calculus (or precalculus) to higher-level mathematics.

    This item was never shipped but U.S.P.S. showed it as having been delivered. After I contacted the seller, they discovered that it had not been shipped and they did not have one to ship me, so they immediately refunded my money. Seller responded quickly to my inquiry and quickly gave me a refund. Would buy from them again.
