What is A Transition to Advanced Mathematics, 7th Edition about?

<p>Many undergraduates find themselves stuck in the transition between beginning calculus to a more rigorous level of mathematics by their inability to do proofs. This text bridges the gap by explaining the basics of the concepts they will need in their next steps, helps them think and express themselves mathematically, and prepares students specifically for higher algebra and analysis. It covers logic and proofs (including quanitifiers), set theory (including operations and induction), relations (Cartesian products, equivalence, partitions, ordering relations and graphs), functions, cardinality, and concepts of algebra (structures, groups, subgroups, operation preserving maps, rings and fields) and analysis (including ordered field properties of the real numbers, the Henine-Bodel theorem, and the Bolzano- Weierstrass theorem). The authors provide answers to selected exercises.
