But counting is hard. Students find it hard. Teachers find it hard. And in the end the only way to learn is to do \u003ci\u003emany\u003c\/i\u003e problems. Tim Hill's learn-by-example approach presents counting concepts and problems of gradually increasing difficulty. If you become lost or confused, then you can back up a bit for clarification. With practice, you'll develop the ability to decompose complex problems and then assemble the partial solutions to arrive at the final answer. The result: learn in a few weeks what conventional schools stretch into months.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTeaches general principles that can be applied to a wide variety of problems.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAvoids the mindless and excessive routine computations that characterize conventional textbooks.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTreats counting as a logically coherent discipline, not as a disjointed collection of techniques.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRestores proofs to their proper place to remove doubt, convey insight, and encourage precise logical thinking.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOmits digressions, excessive formalities, and repetitive exercises.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eProvides exceptional preparation for probability and statistics courses.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIncludes problems (with all solutions) that extend your knowledge rather than merely reinforce it.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eContents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e1.
