"The coherence of mathematics is on display in this masterful, beautifully written synthesis.

The book is distinguished by its breadth of scope and precise details. It will be a classic in the field."--David Bressoud, Macalester College
"[A] sophisticated treatment of topics usually described as elementary."--John Allen Paulos
