Sinossi
This text provides a solid foundation in the basic logical concepts for most of the subjects encountered in university mathematics, including basic college-level algebra and analysis. The first edition has been completely rewritten and expanded in response to a decade of teaching the subjects. This text is written for the students beginning "abstract pure mathematics" at university or college level. For the student beginning to study mathematics at this level there is a distinction between what she or he has done in the past and what lies ahead. What the student needs to acquire mastery of what is virtually an entirely new language -the language of mathematics- and to adopt an entirely new way of thinking.

Paperback. Condizione: Good. Sets, Functions, and Logic by Keith Devlin is a clear, accessible introduction to the foundational structures of modern mathematics. Designed for students and readers seeking to understand the building blocks of mathematical reasoning, this book guides you through the essential tools of set theory, function theory, and logic with precision and clarity. Devlin, a renowned mathematician and communicator, brings a rare combination of academic rigor and engaging exposition. Whether you?re preparing for advanced study in mathematics, computer science, or philosophy, or simply want to strengthen your grasp of how mathematical thinking works, this book lays a solid groundwork. With numerous examples, exercises, and thoughtful explanations, Sets, Functions, and Logic invites readers to think deeply, reason carefully, and appreciate the elegance at the heart of mathematics. Couple of pages in the middle are a bit torn, less than an inch square, like the book was caught on something at some time, but its minimal and the book is otherwise in a near new condition and very usable if you live in 1996.
