The Shape of Space, Third Edition maintains the standard of excellence set by the previous editions. This lighthearted textbook covers the basic geometry and topology of two- and three-dimensional spaces-stretching students' minds as they learn to visualize new possibilities for the shape of our universe. Written by a master expositor, leading researcher in the field, and MacAr...(展开全部)

Sadly, neither the school library nor the public one had much on the subject. Perhaps, I thought, I will learn more about topology in college. In college I couldn't even sign up for topology until my senior year,...(展开全部)

In a new and updated edition of this classic textbook, Henry William Spiegel brings his discussion and analysis of economic thought into the 1990s. A new introductory chapter offering an overall view of the history of economics and a bibliographic survey of the economic literature of the 1980s and early 1990s, have been added. Maintaining the link between economics and the huma...(展开全部)

Алгебраические структуры, известные из первых двух частей учебника (группы, кольца, модули), изучаются на несколько более высоком уровне. Идеи и результаты теории представлений, подкреплённые многочисленными примерами, придают всему изложению общематематическое звучание. Особое место занимают конечно порождённые абелевы группы, теоремы Силова, представления и характеры конечных...(展开全部)
