Such courses help students be prepared for higher-level mathematics course from their onset. Advanced Mathematics: A Transitional Reference provides a ?crash course? in beginning pure mathematics, offering instruction on a blendof inductive and deductive reasoning. By avoiding outdated methods and countless pages of theorems and proofs, this innovative textbook prompts students to think about the ideas presented in an enjoyable, constructive setting. Clear and concise chapters cover all the essential topics students need to transition from the "rote-orientated" courses of calculus to the more rigorous "proof-orientated? advanced mathematics courses. Topics include sentential and predicate calculus, mathematical induction, sets and counting, complex numbers, point-set topology, and symmetries, abstract groups, rings, and fields. Each section contains numerous problems for students of various interests and abilities. Ideally suited for a one-semester course, this book: Introduces students to mathematical proofs and rigorous thinking Provides thoroughly class-tested material from the authors own course in transitioning to higher math Strengthens the mathematical thought process of the reader Includes informative sidebars, historical notes, and plentiful graphics Offers a companion website to access a supplemental solutions manual for instructors Advanced Mathematics: A Transitional Reference is a valuable guide for undergraduate students who have taken courses in calculus, differential equations, or linear algebra, but may not be prepared for the more advanced courses of real analysis, abstract algebra, and number theory that await them. This text is also useful for scientists, engineers, and others seeking to refresh their skills in advanced math. 606 $aMathematics$vTextbooks 615 0$aMathematics 676 $a510 700 $aFarlow$b Stanley J.$042263 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910678107703321 996 $aAdvanced mathematics$93064723 997 $aUNINA LEADER 03332nam 2200685Ia 450 001 9910972476903321 005 20200520144314.0 010 $a9780791480823 010 $a0791480828 010 $a9781429471237 010 $a1429471239 035 $a(CKB)1000000000474015 035 $a(OCoLC)137662026 035 $a(CaPaEBR)ebrary10575918 035 $a(SSID)ssj0000202129 035 $a(PQKBManifestationID)11216682 035 $a(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000202129 035 $a(PQKBWorkID)10252150 035 $a(PQKB)10172392 035 $a(MdBmJHUP)muse6481 035 $a(Au-PeEL)EBL3407492 035 $a(CaPaEBR)ebr10575918 035 $a(DE-B1597)684314 035 $a(DE-B1597)9780791480823 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC3407492 035 $a(Perlego)2672006 035 $a(EXLCZ)991000000000474015 100 $a20060120d2007 ub 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aurcn||||||||| 181 $ctxt 182 $cc 183 $acr 200 10$aMexico's ruins $eJuan Garcia Ponce and the writing of modernity /$fRaul Rodriguez-Hernandez 205 $a1st ed. 210 $aAlbany $cState University of New York Press$dc2007 215 $a1 online resource (229 p.) 225 1 $aSUNY series in Latin American and Iberian thought and culture 300 $aBibliographic Level Mode of Issuance: Monograph 311 08$a9780791469446 311 08$a0791469441 311 08$a9780791469439 311 08$a0791469433 320 $aIncludes bibliographical references (p. 199-210) and index. 327 $aTraces of theory, tropes of modernity -- The storyteller's ruins -- Monuments and relics, I -- Monuments and relics, II -- De a?nima, de corpore : the ruins of the bourgeois world -- Modernity, contingency, compensation -- A brief return to the ruin. 330 $aAt face value, the concept of modernity seems to reference a stream of social and historical traffic headed down a utopian one-way street named "progress." Mexico's Ruins examines modernity in twentieth-century Mexican culture as a much more ambiguous concept, arguing that such a single-minded notion is inadequate to comprehend the complexity of modern Mexico's national projects and their reception by the nation's citizenry. Instead, through the trope of modernity as ruin, author Raúl Rodríguez-Hernández explores the dilemma presented by the etymology of "ruins": a simultaneous falling down and rising up, a confluence of opposing forces at work on the skyline of the metropolis since 1968. He focuses on artists and writers of the generación de medio siglo, like Juan García Ponce, and envisions both the tales of modernity and their storytellers in a new light. The arts, literature, and architecture of twentieth-century Mexico are all examined in this cross-cultural and interdisciplinary book. 410 0$aSUNY series in Latin American and Iberian thought and culture. 606 $aLiterature and society$zMexico 606 $aPolitics and society$zMexico 615 0$aLiterature and society 615 0$aPolitics and society 676 $a868/.6409 700 $aRodriguez-Hernandez$b Raul$01805120 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910972476903321 996 $aMexico's ruins$94353548 997 $aUNINA LEADER 01226oam 22004214a 450 001 9911034869103321 005 20251027051929.0 010 $a9781912729272 035 $a(CKB)40123835400041 035 $a(OCoLC)1423741180 035 $a(MdBmJHUP)musev2_136406 035 $a(EXLCZ)9940123835400041 100 $a20220215d2021 uy 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aur||||||||||| 181 $ctxt$2rdacontent 182 $cc$2rdamedia 183 $acr$2rdacarrier 200 10$aEngineering the Climate : $eScience, Politics and Visions of Control / $fJulia Schubert 205 $a1st ed. 210 1$aManchester$cMattering Press$d[2021] 210 4$d©[2021] 215 $a1 online resource (280 pages): $cDiagramme 300 $aDas Werk liegt auch als Open Access Titel vor. 311 08$a9781912729265 606 $aGeoengineering$2gnd 606 $aKlimaänderung$2gnd 608 $aElectronic books. 615 7$aGeoengineering. 615 7$aKlimaänderung. 676 $a551.6 700 $aSchubert$b Julia$4aut$01853885 801 0$bMdBmJHUP 801 1$bMdBmJHUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9911034869103321 996 $aEngineering the Climate$94450684 997 $aUNINA
