Excursions in Modern Mathematics

For courses in Liberal Arts Mathematics.

Math: Applicable, Accessible, Modern

Excursions in Modern Mathematics introduces non-majors to the power and beauty of math. By developing an appreciation for the aesthetics and applicability of mathematics, students who previously felt math was an “unknowable” subject can approach it with a new perspective. Contemporary topics ranging from elections, to networks, to analysing data show students that math is an accessible tool that can be applicable and interesting for anyone. Refinement and updating of examples and exercises, plus increased resources for students and instructors, makes the 9th Edition a relevant, accessible, and complete program.
