General Mathematics: Revision and Practice is a comprehensive resource for self-study or teacher-led courses to take GCSE and Standard Grade candidates right up to A* Grade, or Scottish Credit level. This edition now includes a new chapter on investigations, practical problems and puzzles, to give the student problem-solving skills and practice ready for coursework. Key Points: · A complete course in one volume · Ease of accessibility to different maths topics · Graded questions, revision exercises and past examination questions · Ample quantity of material providing wide choice · Mathematics drawn out from a wide range of realistic everyday situations · Numerical answers provided at the back

A new course developed by highly experienced Mathematics educators and textbook writers to cover the MoES Secondary Mathematics syllabus and to prepare students for UCE O-level Matematics examinations. The course consists of four Students' Books, each with an accompanying Teacher's Guide.

"A first-class mathematician's lucid, unhurried account of the science of numbers from arithmetic through the calculus." — James R. Newman, The World of Mathematics. This highly accessible introduction to mathematics is geared toward readers seeking a firm grasp of the essentials of mathematical theory and practice. The treatment also offers a concise outline of mathematical history and a clearer notion of why mathematicians do what they do. Author E. C. Titchmarsh, who served for many years as Savilian Professor of Geometry at Oxford University, begins with counting and the fundamentals of arithmetic. He guides readers through the complexities of algebra, fractions, geometry, irrational numbers, logarithms, infinite series, complex numbers, quadratic equations, trigonometry, functions, and integral and differential calculus. Titchmarsh's graceful, fluid style helps make complicated topics easier to grasp, and his inclusion of numerous examples will prove especially helpful to readers with little or no background in mathematics.

A comprehensive study guide covering the complete Preliminary mathematics course. Special features include a thorough and complete summary of each topic. Outcomes provided at the beginning of each chapter and important definitions and formulae. Complete and correct solutions provided for all questions. Suitable for 2001 HSC.

For many years, this classroom-tested, best-selling text has guided mathematics students to more advanced studies in topology, abstract algebra, and real analysis. Elements of Advanced Mathematics, Third Edition retains the content and character of previous editions while making the material more up-to-date and significant. This third edition adds four new chapters on point-set topology, theoretical computer science, the P/NP problem, and zero-knowledge proofs and RSA encryption. The topology chapter builds on the existing real analysis material. The computer science chapters connect basic set theory and logic with current hot topics in the technology sector. Presenting ideas at the cutting edge of modern cryptography and security analysis, the cryptography chapter shows students how mathematics is used in the real world and gives them the impetus for further exploration. This edition also includes more exercises sets in each chapter, expanded treatment of proofs, and new proof techniques. Continuing to bridge computationally oriented mathematics with more theoretically based mathematics, this text provides a path for students to understand the rigor, axiomatics, set theory, and proofs of mathematics. It gives them the background, tools, and skills needed in more advanced courses.

This well-established series, the most popular in Nigeria, has been fully revised to reflect recent developments in mathematics education at junior secondary level and the views of the many users of the books. It has expecially been revised to fully cover the requirements of the new NERDC Universal Basic Education Curriculum.
