Written to accompany a one- or two-semester course, this text combines rigor and wit to cover a plethora of topics from integers to uncountable sets. It teaches methods such as axiom, theorem, and proof through the mathematics rather than in abstract isolation.

This much-anticipated textbook illuminates the field of discrete mathematics with examples, theory, and applications of the discrete volume of a polytope. It weaves a unifying thread through basic yet deep ideas in discrete geometry, combinatorics, and number theory.

A First Course in Complex Analysis was developed from lecture notes for a one-semester undergraduate course taught by the authors. For many students, complex analysis is the first rigorous analysis (if not mathematics) class they take, and these notes reflect this. The authors try to rely on as few concepts from real analysis as possible. In particular, series and sequences are treated from scratch.
