Artikelbeschreibung des Verkäufers

Corners, Spine Bumped; Light Shelf Rub to Boards; Spine Slightly Cocked; Edges Lightly Soiled; Slight Yellowing Due to Age. CONTENTS: Chapter 1. The Algebra of Sets; Chapter 2. Arrangements and Subsets; Chapter 3. Mathematical Induction; Chapter 4. The Binomial Theorem; Chapter 5. Probability; Chapter 6. Polar Co-ordinates; Chapter 7. Complex Numbers; Chapter 8. An Introduction to Algebraic Systems; Tables; Answers; Index. EXCERPT: PREFACE - In this text the authors have attempted to introduce a judicious blending of the set theoretical approach and the more traditional approach to the various topics. The set theoretical approach can be very useful in demonstrating relationships between apparently unrelated topics and, from this point of view, is a powerful mathematical tool. However, overindulgence in set theory simply for the sake of using sets may often cause basically simple ideas to appear much more complicated than they actually are. Study of Chapters 6, 7, and 8, may usefully be delayed until the authors companion volume entitled Vectors and Matrices has been studied. This is not essential since these chapters are complete in themselves, but a familiarity with Vectors and Matrices may enable the student to study these chapters more quickly. Definitions and key points in the various chapters have been printed in red. In addition some problems in certain exercises have been numbered in red. These tend to be more difficult than the other problems and might be omitted on a first reading . . . Size: 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall.…

Shopbeschreibung

For a good portion of the 1990's, our family was interested in the idea of entering the used book business. We are all avid readers, book lovers, and book collectors who cannot pass a bookstore without popping in. Family trips to the library and our local used bookstore were a regularity while growing up. With each of us having interests in different genres (with a little overlapping here and there), we cover a lot of bases. The thought of having a store of our own was appealing, and the hunt was on - both for stock and a location. We thought to combine under one roof many different things that would appeal to readers and book lovers. Not only used books, but some new items as well. Bookmarks (to ward off dog-eared pages), bookends (to keep those out-of-control collections under control), bookplates (to label books on the "Can I borrow that?" circuit to ensure that they always found their way home), book repair tape (to lend a helping hand to collectors with tattered favourites in their collections), and so on. With an interest in book-themed knick knacks as well, we had two sides to our would-be business: books and knick-knacks. Hence the business was born. In the early part of 1998 we bought a commercial property, and in the summer we first opened our doors in a storefront in Uxbridge, Ontario, Canada. With start-up stock consisting of a garage full of books hand-picked for just such a venture that we purchased from someone who changed their plans, we were in business. For several years we operated in this storefront, growing our business and learning about the industry and the backbone of it - the customers. It was very satisfying to be present at the end of someone's book quest, as we were quite often. Many a time we heard shouts of joy from somewhere in the shop as customers happened upon just what they'd been looking for (oftentimes for quite a while). At other times, people would approach us with bits and pieces of information that they remembered from long ago favourites in hopes that we could at least help them come up with an author or title to help in their search, which we often times did, with the book in hand. And when we couldn't come up with anything on our own, we would pick the brains of other customers in conversation, or turn to the internet for help for them. For us, quality and selection of stock go hand-in-hand with customer service. One isn't much good without the other. But times, people, places, and lives change and after several years in our storefront we made a change of our own - in 2004 we relocated to the internet. Now a home-based business in Oshawa, Ontario, Canada, we are gradually bringing our inventory online here. We carry used paperbacks, hardbacks, and magazines for both adults and children. We have thousands upon thousands of books that are not yet listed for sale on the internet, but are gradually making their way there.…
