Excursions in Classical Analysis introduces undergraduate students to advanced problem solving and undergraduate research in two ways. Firstly, it provides a colourful tour of classical analysis which places a wide variety of problems in their historical context. Secondly, it helps students gain an understanding of mathematical discovery and proof. In demonstrating a variety of possible solutions to the same sample exercise, the reader will come to see how the connections between apparently inapplicable areas of mathematics can be exploited in problem-solving. This book will serve as excellent preparation for participation in mathematics competitions, as a valuable resource for undergraduate mathematics ... Read more

Reviews for Excursions in Classical Analysis (Classroom Resource Materials)
Based on his obviously very rich and far-reaching experience in this didactic realm, the author offers a colorful panorama of various topics in calculus, both elementary and advanced, as well as a wide variety of typical problems placed in their respective historical contexts. Generally, starting from analyzing simple cases, the present book illustrates creative problem solving techniques along selected case ... Read more
