Review
One of the best books written on fundamental principles of mathematics for high school students. The treatment of basics of inequalities,combinatorics,algebra is quite rigorous. While titled elementary the standard of the problems / exposition of concepts is any thing but that. It is targeted towards dedicated student and will require hard work to go through it end to end.I read this book in 1990 to prepare for a extremely competitive examination (IIT ) and it not only contributed to me acing the exam but also laid the foundation of a life long love affair with mathematics. --manualal on August 24, 2012
It's a shame as the content looks to be very informative and interesting. I just couldn't go through with the book as I was struggling with deciphering the letters rather than understanding the material I'll probably have another look at it if another publisher/printer picks it up. --Bashar on August 19, 2013
