Since the publication of the first edition of this book， both through teaching the material it covers and as a result of receiving helpful comments from colleagues， we have become aware of the desirability of changes in a number of areas. The most important of these is that the mathematical preparation of current senior college and university entrants is now less thorough than it used to be. To match this， we decided to include a preliminary chapter covering areas such as polynomial equations， trigonometric identities， coordinate geometry， partial fractions， binomial expansions， necessary and sufficient condition and proof by induction and contradiction.本書為英文版。

KEN RILEY read Mathematics at the University of Cambridge and proceeded to a Ph.D. there in theoretical and experimental nuclear physics.He became a Research Associate in elementary prticl physics at Brookhaven， and then， having taken up a lectureship at the Cavendish Laboratory， Cambridge， Continued this research at the Tutherford Laboratory and Stanford; in particular he was involved in the experimental discovery of a number of the early baryonic resonances. As well as having been Senior Tutor at Clare College， where he has taught physics and mathematics for nearly forty years， he has served on many committees concerned with the teaching and examining of these subjects at all levels of tertiary and undergraduate deucation.
