Keith Devlin. You know him. You've read his columns in MAA Online, you've heard him on the radio, and you've seen his popular mathematics books. In between all those activities and his own research, he's been hard at work revising Sets, Functions and Logic, his standardsetting text that has smoothed the road to pure mathematics for legions of undergraduate students.Now in its third edition, Devlin has fully reworked the book to reflect a new generation. The narrative is more lively and less textbooklike. Remarks and asides link the topics presented to the real world of students' experience. The chapter on complex numbers and the discussion of formal symbolic logic are gone in favor of more exercises, and a new introductory chapter on the nature of mathematicsone that motivates readers and sets the stage for the challenges that lie ahead.Students crossing the bridge from calculus to higher mathematics need and deserve all the help they can get. Sets, Functions, and Logic, Third Edition is an affordable little book that all of your transitioncourse students not only can afford, but will actually readand enjoyand learn from.About the AuthorDr. Keith Devlin is Executive Director of Stanford University's Center for the Study of Language and Information and a Consulting Professor of Mathematics at Stanford.
