| 3. Manifolds and Differential Geometry (Graduate Studies in Mathematics) | 
|
By: Jeffrey M. Lee
Publisher: American Mathematical Society
November 25, 2009
Finally (!), an excellent book in Modern Differential Geometry that is here to stay! For people who struggled with the old-fashioned style and notations of Kobayashi and Nomizu, or with the happy-go-lucky style of Spivak's book, this new book is a must read! You will find it very well written, and you will regret that a book like this was not available 10 years ago! It leaves the pre... more

| 4. The Knot Book |
|
By: Colin Adams
Publisher: American Mathematical Society
2004-09
i've been studying knots independently for the better part of this month and using mr. adams's def. comes in handy. i have one major complaint that there are no answers for any of the exercises!!! i feel like some of the exercises he sets up are crucial proofs for understanding basic concepts, however they take several minutes to solve, and there is no follow-up to show if what you did... more

| 5. Groups and Symmetry: A Guide to Discovering Mathematics (Mathematical World, Vol. 5) |
|
By: David W. Farmer
Publisher: American Mathematical Society
1995-11
This book was the foundational textbook for a 100-level class in symmetry at my university. I recommend it highly to anyone who wants to get a better feel for what mathematicians actually do and think about and work with. Folks who never got into the higher math classes often have a different idea of what mathematics is all about than mathematicians. At the level of introductory algebra and geometry... more

| 6. Differential Geometry: Curves - Surfaces - Manifolds, Second Edition |
|
By: Wolfgang Kühnel
Publisher: American Mathematical Society
December 13, 2005
The author gives a clean and wise introduction to the three major parts in differential geometry-curves-surfaces-manifolds. The important concepts in classic results were introduced by short but fully content paragraphs.
The author wrote no gossip in the context and always touch the ideas with a niddle; therefore I should follow that:
This is the best book for introducing... more

| 7. How to Teach Mathematics |
|
By: Steven G. Krantz
Publisher: American Mathematical Society
January 01, 1999
This book is fairly useful, but I want to comment on some things that annoyed me.
Krantz is critical of teaching substantial applications such as Kepler's laws and predator-pray systems in calculus classes, for this reason:
"How will you test them on this material? Can you ask the students to do homework problems if their understanding is based on such a presentation?" (pp... more

| 10. Markov Chains and Mixing Times |
|
By: David A. Levin, Yuval Peres, and Elizabeth L. Wilmer
Publisher: American Mathematical Society
December 09, 2008
This beautiful undergraduate textbook is a labor of love. It introduces modern topics, starting from using couplings to determine mixing times, and going all the way to current trends and topics such as Wilson's algorithm and coupling from the past. It's notable just for introducing students to coupling at this early stage! Its amazingly written in the American undergraduate style. It's intended... more
