Inhaltsangabe
A guide to the practical art of plausible reasoning, this book has relevance in every field of intellectual activity. Professor Polya, a world-famous mathematician from Stanford University, uses mathematics to show how hunches and guesses play an important part in even the most rigorously deductive science. He explains how solutions to problems can be guessed at; good guessing is often more important than rigorous deduction in finding correct solutions. Vol. I, on Induction and Analogy in Mathematics, covers a wide variety of mathematical problems, revealing the trains of thought that lead to solutions, pointing out false bypaths, discussing techniques of searching for proofs. Problems and examples challenge curiosity, judgment, and power of invention.

Hardcover. Zustand: Good. No Jacket. First Edition. The first volume of "Mathematics and Plausible Reasoning" by George Polya, titled "Induction and Analogy in Mathematics," is an original 1954 1st edition. This vintage hardcover book, with 280 pages, is in good condition.The maroon cloth covers are accented by silver spine lettering, giving it a classic look. While the book is in good condition, there are signs of previous ownership. The former owner's name is lightly stamped on both the covers and edges of the text block.

There's light abrasion on the pastedowns and front flyleaf.However, the interior pages are clean and unmarked, making for an excellent reading experience. This vintage volume is a treasure for mathematics enthusiasts, offering insights into induction and analogy in the field.Your book will be carefully packaged and protected for shipping, and you will receive a USPS electronic delivery tracking number at no additional cost.
