I was going to suggest one I taught from, Introduction to Mathematical Thinking by Gilbert and Vanstone, until I searched and found it priced at over $100, for a slim paperback worth maybe $15. Still there are books that try to do both, present rules of logic, then present actual math topics logically. I tend to agree that books merely about 'proof' do not prepare one for real math books. If you don't get feedback, you'll learn it all wrong. But when learning basic proofs, you will NEED feedback. This maybe some tutor, or even you posting solutions on physicsforums. Also, if possible, find somebody who is willing to guide you. That would prepare you way better than a proof book. And a great selection of similar Used, New and Collectible Books available now at. Principles of Mathematics by Allendoerfer, C. I suggest perhaps some linear algebra book, or a discrete math book like Grimaldi. I think you would be better off getting a book on an actual mathematical topic. They always have a certain context (like analysis, or discrete math).Įliminating the context is a really bad idea. This is really bad, since proofs don't exist in isolation. This is not bad, but the style you learn from proof books tend to be really different from how the rest of mathematics approach their proofs. Why do I think doing proof books is not good? 1) You learn a certain notation and a certain style to do proofs.

They spend a lot on time and pages on stuff you could do way shorter. The pertinent findings relative to the manner in which the bio-membrane system distinguishes between sodium and potassiumions, along with current and future modifications of these model systems and programs, are delineated.I personally think doing proof books like Velleman or book of proof is pretty useless. The origin and derivation of equations, programming methods, properties of the model systems, and a summary of results of the data are accompanied, by the individual Direct Analysis programs themselves along with their computer output. The rationale and methods describing the movements of ions in a series of model systems is set forth. These studies apply the “Direct Analysis” method in a “many-body-problem” approach and an inductive procedure is developed for monitoring errors.

A new theoretical approach to study ion movements is set forth based upon the “Direct Analysis” method and a structural model of a bio-membrane system. Theories of transport and permeability of ions through biological cell membranes relevant to experimental findings are briefly reviewed.
