2012
Edition 2
- Solutions manual for even numbered exercises is available on springer.com for instructors adopting the text for a course
- Discusses the multifaceted process of mathematical proof by thoughtful oscillation between what is known and what is to be demonstrated
- Presents more than one proof for many results, for instance for the fact that there are infinitely many prime numbers
- Shows how the processes of counting and comparing the sizes of finite sets are based in function theory, and how the ideas can be extended to infinite sets via Cantor's theorems
