The first book of its kind, "New Foundations in Mathematics: The
Geometric Concept of Number" uses geometric algebra to present an
innovative approach to elementary and advanced mathematics.
Geometric algebra offers a simple and robust means of expressing a
wide range of ideas in mathematics, physics, and engineering. In
particular, geometric algebra extends the real number system to
include the concept of direction, which underpins much of modern
mathematics and physics. Much of the material presented has been
developed from undergraduate courses taught by the author over the
years in linear algebra, theory of numbers, advanced calculus and
vector calculus, numerical analysis, modern abstract algebra, and
differential geometry. The principal aim of this book is to present
these ideas in a freshly coherent and accessible manner.
"New Foundations in Mathematics" will be of interest to
undergraduate and graduate students of mathematics and physics who
are looking for a unified treatment of many important geometric
ideas arising in these subjects at all levels. The material can
also serve as a supplemental textbook in some or all of the areas
mentioned above and as a reference book for professionals who apply
mathematics to engineering and computational areas of mathematics
and physics.
