Introductory thoughts -- Math concepts -- Teaching techniques -- Social issues -- Cognitive issues -- What is a mathematician? -- Is mathematical maturity for everyone?
This book treats the maturation process for a mathematics student. It describes and analyzes how a student develops from a neophyte who can manipulate simple arithmetic problems to a sophisticated thinker who can understand abstract concepts, think rigorously, and analyze and manipulate proofs. Most importantly, the mature mathematics student can create proofs and know when the proofs that he/she has created are correct. -- from Back Cover
