Summary: A grasp of the precision, beauty, and complexity of mathematics requires an understanding of some of the subject's technical aspects. The real number system provides an ideal framework for cultivating such an appreciation, and this detailed investigation of the system offers an accessible introduction. The treatment presumes only a familiarity with the basic properties of natural numbers, although readers must be willing to apply themselves. Proceeding from a review of the natural numbers to the positive rational numbers, the text advances to the nonnegative real numbers and the set of all real numbers. https://store.doverpublications.com/0486824519.html
