520 |a As a student moves from basic calculus courses into upper-division courses in linear and abstract algebra, real and complex analysis, number theory, topology, and so on, a "bridge" course can help ensure a smooth transition. Introduction to Mathematical Structures and Proofs is a textbook intended for such a course, or for self-study.  This book introduces an array of fundamental mathematical structures. It also explores the delicate balance of intuition and rigor and the flexible thinking required to prove a nontrivial result.  In short, this book seeks to enhance the mathematical maturity of the reader.  The new material in this second edition includes a section on graph theory, several new sections on number theory (including primitive roots, with an application to card-shuffling), and a brief introduction to the complex numbers (including a section on the arithmetic of the Gaussian integers). From a review of the first edition: "...Gerstein wants very gently to teach his students to think. He wants to show them how to wrestle with a problem (one that is more sophisticated than "plug and chug"), how to build a solution, and ultimately he wants to teach the students to take a statement and develop a way to prove it...Gerstein writes with a certain flair that I think students will find appealing. ...I am confident that a student who works through Gerstein's book will really come away with (i) some mathematical technique, and (ii) some mathematical knowledge .Gerstein s book states quite plainly that the text is designed for use in a transitions course.  Nothing benefits a textbook author more than having his goals clearly in mind, and Gerstein s book achieves its goals.  I would be happy to use it in a transitions course.
