Combining the features of a textbook with those of a problem workbook, this text presents a natural, friendly way to learn some of the essential ideas of graph theory, with 360 strategically placed exercises and 280 additional homework problems to encourage reader involvement and engagement.

An introduction to Euclidean and hyperbolic geometry in the plane, this book is designed for an undergraduate course in geometry, but will also be a stimulating read for anyone comfortable with the language of mathematical proof. The text is extensively illustrated and brings together topics not typically found together.

Using the Daniell-Riesz approach, this text presents the Lebesgue integral to an audience familiar only with limits, derivatives and series. Employing such minimal prerequisites allows for increased curricular flexibility for course instructors, and provides undergraduates with a gateway to the modern mathematics of functions at an early stage.

Targeting talented students who seek a deeper understanding of calculus and its applications, this book contains enrichment material for undergraduate courses in calculus, differential equations, and modelling. The friendly presentation maintains rigour whilst avoiding epsilons and deltas. Topics are chosen for intrinsic interest, historical influence, and continuing importance.

By using everyday language and popular characters, this unorthodox textbook explains arithmetic in an accessible way to benefit budding teachers.

Designed to aid teachers and students, Nelsen guides his readers through fifty short visual enhancements to the first-year calculus course.

This book is written as both a stepping stone to higher calculus and analysis courses, and as a foundation for deeper reasoning in applied mathematics. As well as a rigorous account of sequences, series, functions and sets, the reader will also find fascinating historical material and over 600 exercises.

C. Edward Sandifer, one of the world's leading Euler scholars, presents another collection of his 'How Euler Did It' columns. Each is a jewel of historical and mathematical exposition that will leave the reader marveling at Euler's inventiveness.

Designed for undergraduate students and lecturers, this text guides its users to develop the skills, and habits of a mathematician. Using exercises and theorems on the subject of graphs, groups, and calculus, its users will discover mathematical ideas, and understand the process of mathematical creativity and development.

This book presents techniques for proving a variety of mathematical results in three-dimensional Euclidean space, the field traditionally known as solid geometry. The text is aimed at secondary school and college and university teachers as an introduction to solid geometry, or in a mathematics course for liberal arts students.

A treatment of polynomial equations that is designed for self-study and will enrich algebra courses at the high-school level and above. The author goes beyond the familiar quadratic formula to cover cubic and quartic equations, complete with lively historical notes and an informal discussion of Galois theory.

A beautifully illustrated collection of striking and original results in geometry. Recommended for students and teachers of geometry and calculus.

A collection of problems from the William Lowell Putnam Competition which places them in the context of important mathematical themes.

A colourful introduction to classical analysis, complete with problems from past mathematics competitions, for undergraduate mathematics students.

Classic text on graph theory, brought up to date by Robin Wilson, himself a best-selling maths author.
