Preface
"The advancement and perfection of mathematics are intimately connected with
the prosperity of the state" Napoleon Bonaparte.
"No other field can offer, to such an extent as mathematics, the joy of discovery,
which is perhaps the greatest human joy.I know a schoolchild who was twelve
years old when his first original mathematics result appeared in a mathematical
journal one not meant for schools. In another field, that would hardly be
conceivable" Rozsa Peter.
If we have to spend some time in Tamil Nadu or Bengal, we must learn Tamil
or Bengali to be able to freely communicate with the people there. Similarly, when
we arrive in this world we must learn mathematics, because this is the only language
Nature understands.
Like painting or writing poetry, mathematics is also a creative activity. Here
