Review

The exposition is self-contained, complemented by diverse exercises and also accompanied by an introduction to mathematical reasoning ... this book is an excellent textbook for a one-semester undergraduate course and it includes a lot of additional material to choose from.
EMS, March 2006

In a textbook, it is necessary to select carefully the statements and difficulty of the problems ... in this textbook, this is fully achieved ... This review considers this book an excellent one.
