PrimePuzzle12%bestsize.JPG

A Prime PuzzleMartin Griffiths
Price: £14

The prime numbers 2, 3, 5, 7, ... are the building blocks of our number system. Under certain conditions, any arithmetic progression of positive integers contains infinitely many primes, as proved by Gustave Dirichlet. For ages 16+.

This book seeks to provide a complete proof which is accessible to school students possessing post-16 mathematical knowledge. All the techniques needed are carefully developed and explained.

Algebra_of_Geometry_small.jpg

The Algebra of GeometryChristopher J Bradley
Price: £26

In the 19th century, the algebra of the plane was part of the armoury of every serious mathematician. In recent times the major fronts of research mathematics have moved elsewhere. However, those skills and methods are alive and well, and can be found in this book. The Algebra of Geometry deserves a place on the shelf of every enthusiast for Euclidean Geometry, amateur or professional, and is certainly valuable reading for students wishing to compete in senior Mathematical Olympiads. For age 16+ mathematicians.

For delivery addresses outside the UK please remember to add extra postage.
This item is particularly large and requires 2 x "Non-UK postage charges" (£8) rather than one (£4).
