Description

An Introduction to Mathematical Proofs presents fundamental material on logic, proof methods, set theory, number theory, relations, functions, cardinality, and the real number system. This textbook uses a methodical approach to introduce proof techniques and related topics, making it accessible to those with only high-school algebra as a prerequisite. The author's friendly style balances mathematical rigor, while motivating examples, precise definitions, carefully stated theorems, clear proofs, and review of preceding topics help develop ideas. The book includes study aids such as section summaries and over 1100 exercises to support learning. It also provides careful coverage of individual proof-writing skills, including proof annotations and structural outlines to clarify tricky steps in proofs. Nicholas A. Loehr is the author of this textbook, which is part of his published works for CRC Press.
