Textbook

The required textbook for this class is A Discrete Transition to Advanced Mathematics, by Bettina and Thomas Richmond. This book is available in an old edition published by Thompson/Brooks-Cole and in a new edition published by the American Mathematical Society. These editions are essentially identical, so please feel free to purchase either one.

If your textbook order is delayed during the first week of class, then you can download a PDF of the first two sections from the class Canvas site (used here only to protect the distribution of this copyrighted material). If your textbook order is delayed more than a week, then you’ll have to make friends with someone who is willing to share their book with you until your copy arrives!
