This textbook covers in one volume all topics required in the pure mathematics section of single subject A-Level Mathematics syllabuses in the UK, as well as a significant part of the work required by those studying for Further Mathematics and for A-Level

A classic single-volume textbook, popular for its direct and straightforward approach. Understanding Pure Mathematics starts by filling the gap between GCSE and A Level and builds on this base for candidates taking either single-subject of double-subject A Level.

Includes a section on matrices and transformations, this book features worked examples and exercises to illustrate concepts at every stage of its development. It caters for the "Pure Mathematics" content of various courses in Further Mathematics and also for preparation for the Advanced Extension Award.

Mastering Advanced Pure Mathematics is not just another A-Level textbook. It contains full explanations so that it can be used in the classroom or at home as a support in the study of a wide range of syllabuses based on the common core 'A' level topic list. Throughout the book there are: - 'Do you know?' sections which contain brief reminders of ideas which will enable the reader to continue without any problems - 'Memory Joggers' to reinforce learning and understanding - 'Exercises' which are divided into straightforward type questions, and more complex examination questions, to be tackled once the reader has worked through most of the book once - 'Activities' to broaden knowledge.

Pure Mathematics is a new Students' Book and accompanying Teacher's Guide that offers full coverage of the East African A Level curriculum.

Accessible to all students with a sound background in high school mathematics, A Concise Introduction to Pure Mathematics, Fourth Edition presents some of the most fundamental and beautiful ideas in pure mathematics. It covers not only standard material but also many interesting topics not usually encountered at this level, such as the theory of solving cubic equations; Euler’s formula for the numbers of corners, edges, and faces of a solid object and the five Platonic solids; the use of prime numbers to encode and decode secret information; the theory of how to compare the sizes of two infinite sets; and the rigorous theory of limits and continuous functions. New to the Fourth Edition Two new chapters that serve as an introduction to abstract algebra via the theory of groups, covering abstract reasoning as well as many examples and applications New material on inequalities, counting methods, the inclusion-exclusion principle, and Euler’s phi function Numerous new exercises, with solutions to the odd-numbered ones Through careful explanations and examples, this popular textbook illustrates the power and beauty of basic mathematical concepts in number theory, discrete mathematics, analysis, and abstract algebra. Written in a rigorous yet accessible style, it continues to provide a robust bridge between high school and higher-level mathematics, enabling students to study more advanced courses in abstract algebra and analysis.

This elementary presentation exposes readers to both the process of rigor and the rewards inherent in taking an axiomatic approach to the study of functions of a real variable. The aim is to challenge and improve mathematical intuition rather than to verify it. The philosophy of this book is to focus attention on questions which give analysis its inherent fascination. Each chapter begins with the discussion of some motivating examples and concludes with a series of questions.
