Dictionary of Mathematics. Este artículo no está disponible.Dictionary of Mathematics

In this Dictionary of Mathematics , key ideas, terms, and concepts are clearly explained in an accessible and easy-to-use format. Each entry begins with a short definition and is followed by an explanation and/or worked example. The more complex and important the term, the more detailed the entry. In writing each entry, the authors kept three questions in mind: what does the entry mean? why do I need to know it? how is it used? The method follows the familiar concept that knowledge in mathematics consists of "concept, context, and skill."

'Exceptionally clear diagrams and ample use of white space add to the clarity and pedagogic value. This volume will serve as an excellent companion for highly capable and inquisitive mathematics students and as an adjunct to lectures and textbooks. It is a valuable addition to library mathematics collections and has strong educational value.' CHOICE
