What is Introduction to Mathematical Proofs: A Transition (Textbooks in Mathematics) about?

__Shows How to Read & Write Mathematical ProofsIdeal Foundation for More Advanced Mathematics Courses__**Introduction to Mathematical Proofs****: A Transition**facilitates a smooth transition from courses designed to develop computational skills and problem solving abilities to courses that emphasize theorem proving. It helps students develop the skills necessary to write clear, correct, and concise proofs.Unlike similar textbooks, this one begins with logic since it is the underlying language of mathematics and the basis of reasoned arguments. The text then discusses deductive mathematical systems and the systems of natural numbers, integers, rational numbers, and real numbers. It also covers elementary topics in set theory, explores various properties of relations and functions, and proves several theorems using induction. The final chapters introduce the concept of cardinalities of sets and the concepts and proofs of real analysis and group theory. In the appendix, the author includes some basic guidelines to follow when writing proofs.Written in a conversational style, yet maintaining the proper level of mathematical rigor, this accessible book teaches students to reason logica
