Description: BOX SET of 3: MATHEMATICS Its Content, Methods & Meaning by American Mathematical Society (1965, SC) GOOD Box Set of 3 Softcover Books in Good Condition. Box shows significant signs of wear including tears, scuffs, bends and scratches, however all 3 books are in very good condition. Book bindings are mostly tight and intact with a bit of loosening. Yellow covers have minor bumps on corners, tape with numbers in ink across spine, but overall in very good condition. Pages are clean and free of markings and dogears. BW tables and graphs throughout. Box Size: 6" x 9" x 3", Book Size: 6" x 9"Volume 1: 376 pagesVolume 2: 394 pagesVolume 3: 372 pages This major survey of mathematics, featuring the work of 18 outstanding Russian mathematicians and including material on both elementary and advanced levels, encompasses 20 prime subject areas in mathematics in terms of their simple origins and their subsequent sophisticated development. As Professor Morris Kline of New York University noted, "This unique work presents the amazing panorama of mathematics proper. It is the best answer in print to what mathematics contains both on the elementary and advanced levels."Beginning with an overview and analysis of mathematics, the first volume progresses to an exploration of analytic geometry, algebra, and ordinary differential equations. The second volume introduces partial differential equations, along with theories of curves and surfaces, the calculus of variations, and functions of a complex variable. It further examines prime numbers, the theory of probability, approximations, and the role of computers in mathematics. The theory of functions of a real variable opens the third volume, followed by discussions of linear algebra and non-Euclidian geometry, topology, functional analysis, and groups and other algebraic systems.Thorough, coherent explanations of each topic are further augmented by numerous illustrative figures, and every chapter concludes with a suggested reading list.
