Table of ContentsReviewsThe book was quite an enjoyable read ... . It would undoubtedly help students just entering the world of theoretical mathematics, though perhaps after more advanced preparatory material than just high school algebra and trigonometry. (Meghan De Witt, MAA Reviews, October 6, 2019) Reviews of the first edition: It is carefully written in a precise but readable and engaging style and is tightly organised into eight short 'core' chapters and four longer standalone 'extension' chapters. ... I thoroughly enjoyed reading this recent addition to the Springer Undergraduate Texts in Mathematics series and commend this clear, well-organised, unfussy text to its target audiences. (Nick Lord, The Mathematical Gazette, Vol. 100 (547), 2016) The book is an introduction to real mathematics and is very readable. ... The book is indeed a joy to read, and would be an excellent text for an 'appreciation of mathematics' course, among other possibilities. (G. A. Heuer, Mathematical Reviews, February, 2015) Daniel Rosenthal and Peter Rosenthal (both, Univ. of Toronto) and David Rosenthal (St. John's Univ.) present well-chosen, basic, conceptual mathematics, suitably accessible after a K-12 education, in a detailed, self-conscious way that emphasizes methodology alongside content and crucially leads to an ultimate clear payoff. ... Summing Up: Recommended. Lower-division undergraduates and two-year technical program students; general readers. (D. V. Feldman, Choice, Vol. 52 (6), February, 2015) The book was quite an enjoyable read ... . It would undoubtedly help students just entering the world of theoretical mathematics, though perhaps after more advanced preparatory material than just high school algebra and trigonometry. (Meghan De Witt, MAA Reviews, October 6, 2019) Rosenthals have between them produced a very fine, and very readable, introduction to 'real' mathematics.
