Proof and the Art of Mathematics

Joel David Hamkins

An introduction to the practice of proofreading is provided in this book. Leading research mathematician author provides a number of innovative and appealing mathematical claims with simple but intriguing proofs. Number theory, combinatorics, graph theory, game theory, geometry, infinity, order theory, and real analysis are only a few of the subjects covered by these arguments. The intention is to instruct students and aspiring mathematicians in the art of elegant and precise proof-writing.
