An Accompaniment to Higher Mathematics (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9780387946177)

Designed for students preparing to engage in their first struggles to understand mathematics independently, this book teaches in detail how to construct examples and non-examples to help understand a new theorem or definition, and how to discover the outline of a proof in the form of the theorem. It is intended to be used interactively, frequently asking the reader to pause and work on an example or a problem before continuing, and encouraging the student to learn from failed attempts at solving problems.
