For a one-semester freshman or sophomore level course on the fundamentals of proof writing or transition to advanced mathematics course.
Rather than teach mathematics and the structure of proofs simultaneously, this text first introduces logic as the foundation of proofs and then demonstrates how logic applies to mathematical topics. This method ensures that the students gain a firm understanding of how logic interacts with mathematics and empowers them to solve more complex problems in future math courses.
