"This Fourth Edition features quick reference summaries or the proof techniques on the front and back covers a new forward uniqueness method, a new section on counter examples, and four new appendices in discrete mathematics, linear algebra, modern algebra, and real analysis that illustrate how the various proof techniques from the body of the text arise in doing actual mathematics."--Jacket.

Work Description

This book provides a systematic approach that will help you master the basic techniques that are used in all proofs, regardless of the mathematical subject matter in which the proof arises. Once you know these techniques, you'll be better equipped to read, understand, and actually do proofs. You'll also learn when each technique is likely to be successful, based on keywords that appear in the theorem. -- Publisher description

Excerpts

The objective of mathematicians is to discover and to communicate certain truths.
