ON BEING ADJACENT TO HISTORICAL VIOLENCE

Conceived in the cauldron of crises that came to a boil in 2020, this volume asks: who gets to tell whose story? How do we read images? What role does empathy play in our work and ways of being in this world? How do we approach past suffering and injustice in ways that make for a more honest present and hopeful future? In smart, self-conscious, and moving prose, contributors explore such questions, inviting readers to do the same. Irene Kacandes, Dartmouth College; Hanover, NH, USA.

A PRIMER IN COMBINATORICS

f For a one- or two-semester undergraduate or an entry-level graduate course f Suitable for self-study f Over 700 problems, many of them with answers or tips f New chapter on applied properties of boolean functions

The second edition of this well-received textbook is devoted to Combinatorics and Graph Theory, which are cornerstones of Discrete Mathematics. Every section begins with simple model problems. Following their detailed analysis, the reader is led through the derivation of definitions, concepts, and methods for solving typical problems. Theorems then are formulated, proved, and illustrated by more problems of increasing difficulty. Alexander Kheyfits, The City University of New York, USA.

ABSTRACT ALGEBRA

An Introduction with Applications

f Very gentle, user-friendly and skillful introduction, suitable for private study and exam preparation. f For students in mathematics and in various other fields of science.

This is the third edition of the book. In addition to introducing the main concepts of modern algebra, new topic are added: categories and functors; an introduction to representations of finite groups; projective and injective modules; an introduction to noetherian rings and modules and to Hilbert’s Nullstellensatz. There is ample material for a two semester course in abstract algebra. Derek J.S. Robinson, University of Illinois, Urbana-Champaign, USA.

SUBJECT Algebra and Number Theory READERSHIP Students and lecturers in Mathematics, Information and Physical sciences; Academic libraries.
