Hardcover. Condición: Very Good. 8vo (23.5 cm), XII, 416 pp. Publisher's cloth, gilt-lettered spine (binding slightly rubbed, top edge somewhat stained). A rigorous textbook for mathematics teachers and serious students, this book sets out to reveal the logical foundations beneath all of mathematics rather than teach computation. It opens by examining the importance of precise language and the pitfalls of circular definition, then traces the historical development of mathematics before methodically constructing it from scratch--moving through sets, relations, groups, integers, rationals, real numbers, and fields, all derived through strict axiomatic reasoning. The authors firmly believe that genuine mathematical understanding can only be gained through direct, effortful engagement with the material, and accordingly assume no prior computational knowledge from the reader--only curiosity and the perseverance to see it through.
