Synopsis:
Authoritative and reliable, this is the ideal reference guide for students of mathematics at school or in the first year at university. Many entries have been added for this new edition, expanding coverage in the area of computing, including entries on Linear Algebra, Optimisation, Nonlinear equations, Differential equations, and others. More biographies of prominent mathematicians are also added, including Nobel Prizewinners and Fields' medalists. Terms used in first-year university courses, e.g. Lorenz attractor, Linear programming, Liouville numbers, etc., bring the new edition right up-to-date. The dictionary covers both pure and applied mathematics as well as statistics, and there are entries on major mathematicians and mathematics of more general interest, such as fractals, game theory, and chaos.
About the Author: Christopher Clapham was until 1993 Senior Lecturer in Mathematics at the University of Aberdeen and has also taught at universities in Nigeria, Lesotho, and Malawi. He is the author of Introduction to Abstract Algebra and Introduction to Mathematical Analysis. He lives in Exeter. James Nicholson has taught at Harrow School and was Head of Mathematics at Belfast Royal Academy. He is involved with many mathematical and statistical professional associations and has a particular interest in education. He has had seven articles published, and currently holds a bursary from the Teaching Statistics Trust to support a classroom-based research project. He is the co-author of Statistics GCSE for AQA (OUP, 2001).
