ReviewsThis is a wonderful book. Written as a text for a one-semester "transition to higher mathematics" course, it introduces the undergraduate to logic and proofs and to the basic objects and language used in higher mathematics. It is ideal for the many American undergraduates who come to college with little or no experience with proof or formal reasoning and need to be brought up to speed quickly in order to succeed in upper-level mathematics courses. -- Mathematical Association of America, maa.org/press/maa-reviews/book-of-proof

SynopsisThis book is an introduction to the language and standard proof methods of mathematics. It is a bridge from the computational courses that students typically encounter in their first year of college to a more abstract outlook. It lays a foundation for more theoretical courses such as topology, analysis and abstract algebra., This book is an introduction to the language and standard proof methods of mathematics. It is a bridge from the computational courses (such as calculus or differential equations) that students typically encounter in their first year of college to a more abstract outlook. It lays a foundation for more theoretical courses such as topology, analysis and abstract algebra. Although it may be more meaningful to the student who has had some calculus, there is really no prerequisite other than a measure of mathematical maturity. Topics include sets, logic, counting, methods of conditional and non-conditional proof, disproof, induction, relations, functions, calculus proofs and infinite cardinality.
