Description

This book covers both the applied and pure aspects of mathematics. It is important that we could apply mathematical techniques and reasoning in our everyday affairs. Though mathematics may seem abstruse and impractical it is important to understand the thinking behind the mathematical mind which produces the various mathematical ideas and reasoning found in mathematical texts. The book touches on ideas such as differentiation, mathematical modeling, time series analysis used in statistics and algorithms for finding primes, twin primes, etc., which have applications in areas like aeronautical and marine design and computer security. A grasp of mathematical reasoning is also a personal asset as it would boost self confidence in intellectual pursuits.

Professor Edward Grant has published many books and papers.
