The Student Books address the learning outcomes specified in the Higher Still arrangements document and provide complete coverage of the topics required. These comprehensive books offer an extensive resource for Intermediate Mathematics.

Geared toward those who have studied elementary calculus, this book stresses concepts rather than techniques. It prepares students for a first demanding course in analysis, dealing primarily with real-valued functions of a real variable. Complex numbers appear only in supplements and the last two chapters. 1968 edition.

There are a great deal of books on introductory analysis in print today, many written by mathematicians of the first rank. The publication of another such book therefore warrants a defense. I have taught analysis for many years and have used a variety of texts during this time. These books were of excellent quality mathematically but did not satisfy the needs of the students I was teaching. They were written for mathematicians but not for those who were first aspiring to attain that status. The desire to fill this gap gave rise to the writing of this book. This book is intended to serve as a text for an introductory course in analysis. Its readers will most likely be mathematics, science, or engineering majors undertaking the last quarter of their undergraduate education. The aim of a first course in analysis is to provide the student with a sound foundation for analysis, to familiarize him with the kind of careful thinking used in advanced mathematics, and to provide him with tools for further work in it. The typical student we are dealing with has completed a three-semester calculus course and possibly an introductory course in differential equations. He may even have been exposed to a semester or two of modern algebra. All this time his training has most likely been intuitive with heuristics taking the place of proof. This may have been appropriate for that stage of his development.

Intermediate 1 Maths offers an attractive and motivating textbook designed to enthuse students. Attractively illustrated with colour coded explanations and worked examples, the book brings Maths into real-life contexts with activities that make the subject relevant to Intermediate 1 students, whilst offering comprehensive coverage of the syllabus in a focused and concise manner. There is an extensive range of relevant exam-style questions and assessment items to prepare for examination. A CD is included with the book, containing answers to all of the student exercises. The disc can be retained for use solely by the teacher, or released for student self-access according to preferred teaching and assessment strategies. The book covers all the outcomes in the four units of the Intermediate 1 Mathematics course, i.e. units 1, 2, 3 and the Applications of Mathematics unit. Each chapter concentrates on the required learning outcomes with questions, exercises, and end of topic summaries. Questions are designed to help students prepare and practise for unit tests, and the final exam features prominently throughout the book, whilst students are directed to the relevant chapters of the course depending on which units they are studying. Attention is given to both calculator and non-calculator examples in line with the two papers which make up the final exam, and each chapter contains student exercises (with answers supplied). A summary appears at the end of each chapter telling students what they should be able to do.

One cannot be an expert in Autonomous Vehicle Navigation Systems without a proper understanding of the preliminary visual concepts being covered in this book. It is a COMPENDIUM of the intermediate level books in the Visual Mathematics Series. They cover topics of - Elementary (introductory solved visual problems) - Pre-algebra - Geometry - AlgebraThis book intends to test the mathematical concepts taught in intermediate school with an emphasis on the visual skills. The problems are based on middle school curriculum but they are meant to be challenging, and meant for visual learners and high achievers. The use of diagrams and color coding scheme allows enhancing the description of the problems presented in this book and to lead the problem solver towards the solution.The problems presented in this book are in FULL COLOR and they create a visual dimension to the underlying mathematical concepts. It intends to appeal to both sides of the brain - the left and the right. It requires understanding the problem presented in a visual manner, but requires solving the problems using a combination of visual insight and mathematical discipline.This book provides a wide variety of problems, albeit a very limited number of each type. The main goal is to maintain the student's interest. The first eighteen pages include solved examples of visual math problems and should provide the necessary background. Many of the problems in the Pre-Algebra section will remind you of logic based grid puzzles, but the problems in this book have a variety of graph as well as grid representations. The problems in the Geometry section require thinking in relative terms and many of the problems have a certain artistic flavor. The algebra section is also about geometry problems that require algebraic problem solving.

Master the fundamentals of discrete mathematics and proof-writing with MATHEMATICS: A DISCRETE INTRODUCTION! With a wealth of learning aids and a clear presentation, the mathematics text teaches you not only how to write proofs, but how to think clearly and present cases logically beyond this course. Though it is presented from a mathematician's perspective, you will learn the importance of discrete mathematics in the fields of computer science, engineering, probability, statistics, operations research, and other areas of applied mathematics. Tools such as Mathspeak, hints, and proof templates prepare you to succeed in this course.
