Item description from seller

This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -The first course in Analysis, which follows calculus, along with other courses, such as differential equations and elementary linear algebra, in the curricu lum, presents special pedagogical challenges. There is a change of stress from computational manipulation to 'proof. ' Indeed, the course can become more a course in Logic than one in Analysis. Many students, caught short by a weak command of the means of mathematical discourse and unsure of what is expected of them, what 'the game' is, suffer bouts of a kind of mental paralysis. This text attempts to address these problems in several ways: First, we have attempted to define 'the game' as that of 'inquiry,' by using a form of exposition that begins with a question and proceeds to analyze, ultimately to answer it, bringing in definitions, arguments, conjectures, exam ples, etc. , as they arise naturally in the course of a narrative discussion of the question. (The true, historical narrative is too convoluted to serve for first explanations, so no attempt at historical accuracy has been made; our narra tives are completely contrived. ) Second, we have kept the logic informal, especially in the course of preliminary speculative discussions, where common sense and plausibility tempered by mild skepticism-serve to energize the inquiry. 304 pp. Englisch.…
