This third volume of problems from the William Lowell Putnam
Competition is unlike the previous two in that it places the
problems in the context of important mathematical themes. The
authors highlight connections to other problems, to the curriculum
and to more advanced topics. The best problems contain kernels of
sophisticated ideas related to important current research, and yet
the problems are accessible to undergraduates. The solutions have
been compiled from the American Mathematical Monthly, Mathematics
Magazine and past competitors. Multiple solutions enhance the
understanding of the audience, explaining techniques that have
relevance to more than the problem at hand. In addition, the book
contains suggestions for further reading, a hint to each problem,
separate from the full solution and background information about
the competition. The book will appeal to students, teachers,
professors and indeed anyone interested in problem solving as a
gateway to a deep understanding of mathematics.
