A precursor to Russell’s famous Principa Mathematica, this is one of the most original and comprehensive treatises on the logical foundation of mathematics available today.

This third edition of a popular, well-received text offers undergraduates an opportunity to obtain an overview of the historical roots and the evolution of several areas of mathematics. The selection of topics conveys not only their role in this historical development of mathematics but also their value as bases for understanding the changing nature of mathematics.

A springboard for success in Calculus.

With a unique framework and a fresh approach Preparation for Calculus equips students with the necessary skills and confidence to succeed in their foundational calculus course and beyond. The authors focus on challenges observed in the modern classroom to create an accessible resource that will help students develop strong calculation skills and mathematical sophistication.

This book is a self-contained treatment of all the mathematics needed by undergraduate and masters-level students of economics. Building up gently from a very low level, the authors provide a clear, systematic coverage of calculus and matrix algebra. The second half of the book gives a thorough account of probability, optimisation and dynamics.The emphasis throughout is on intuitive argument and problem-solving.

All methods are illustrated by examples, exercises and problems selected from cen...

Research Methods for the Biosciences is the perfect resource for students wishing to develop the crucial skills needed for designing, carrying out, and reporting research, with examples throughout the text drawn from real undergraduate projects.

This short guide to modern error analysis is primarily intended to be used in undergraduate laboratories in the physical sciences. No prior knowledge of statistics is assumed. The necessary concepts are introduced where needed and illustrated graphically. The book emphasises the use of computers for error calculations and data fitting.

This book brings the power of modern Bayesian thinking, modeling, and computing to a broad audience. In particular, it is an ideal resource for advanced undergraduate statistics students and practitioners with comparable experience. It empowers readers to weave Bayesian approaches into their everyday practice.

A practical, illuminating and timeless guide to thinking better, from a Royal Society Prize shortlisted mathematician - now in paperback.
