This book presents a new approach to the epistemology of mathematics by viewing mathematics as a human activity whose knowledge is intimately linked with practice.
La idea de que el desarrollo del conocimiento científico implica un proceso de cambio o transformación más o menos radical ha imperado desde el último tercio del siglo pasado surgiendo de manera interrelacionada desde tres grandes campos de análisis del conocimiento: el psicológico, el epistemológico y el educativo.
Este libro es una introducción a la teoría de números, también conocida como "aritmética superior": comienza con una discusión sobre la noción de divisibilidad y aborda las propiedades elementales de las congruencias; estudia la existencia de raíces y las congruencias cuadráticas, para concluir con el estudio de algunas ecuaciones diofantinas de grado 2 y 3, además de la llamada ecuación de Pell.
This book makes a significant inroad into the unexpectedly difficult question of existence of Frechet derivatives of Lipschitz maps of Banach spaces into higher dimensional spaces.
Although data engineering is a multi-disciplinary field with applications in control, decision theory, and the emerging hot area of bioinformatics, there are no books on the market that make the subject accessible to non-experts.

Set theory is an autonomous and sophisticated field of mathematics that is extremely successful at analyzing mathematical propositions and gauging their consistency strength.
This book provides a comprehensive exposition of the use of set-theoretic methods in abelian group theory, module theory, and homological algebra, including applications to Whitehead's Problem, the structure of Ext and the existence of almost-free modules over non-perfect rings.
Relation theory originates with Hausdorff (Mengenlehre 1914) and Sierpinski (Nombres transfinis, 1928) with the study of order types, specially among chains = total orders = linear orders.
