内容简介 本书最为难能可贵的是始终贯穿着强烈的应用意识,即把数学理论紧密地与政治、经济、体育、艺术、医学、生物、科技、环境等实际问题相结合,这在国内外数学教科书中是不多见的。本书内容包括集合论、数理逻辑、图论、运筹、统计、概率、排列组合、代数、几何和矩阵等。书中每一章的开始提出实际问题,然后发展必要的数学工具,解决问题,从而在应用中进一步加强对数学的理解。讨论的问题涉及日常生活,如信用卡购物、年利率计算、运动队成绩的评价等;也有著名的数学问题,如四色问题等;还有数学在高新技术中的应用。众多的应用问题使本书变得趣味横生。
本书主要可作为非理工类专业师生的教科书,也可作为理工类师生、工程技术人员、管理人员的参考书。
