The American Mathematical Monthly (ISSN 0002-9890) is a mathematical journal founded by Benjamin Finkel in 1894. It is currently published 10 times each year by the Mathematical Association of America.
The American Mathematical Monthly is an expository journal intended for a wide audience of mathematicians, from undergraduate students to research professionals. Articles are chosen on the basis of their broad interest and reviewed and edited for quality of exposition as well as content. In this the American Mathematical Monthly fulfills a different role than typical mathematical research journals.

This delightful collection from the magician of math introduces readers to magic squares, the Generalized Ham Sandwich Theorem, origami, digital roots, an update of the Induction Game of Eleusis, Dudeney puzzles, the maze at Hampton Court palace, and many more mathematical puzzles and principles.

The entire collection of Martin Gardner's Scientific American columns on one searchable CD! Martin Gardner’s “Mathematical Games” column ran in Scientific American from 1956 to 1986. In these columns Gardner introduced hundreds of thousands of readers to the delights of mathematics and of puzzles and problem solving. His column broke such stories as Rivest, Shamir and Adelman on public-key cryptography

DJVUThis volume offers insights into the development of mathematical logic over the last century. Arising from a special session of the history of logic at an American Mathematical Society meeting, the chapters explore technical innovations, the philosophical consequences of work during the period, and the historical and social context in which the logicians worked....

Handy compilation of 100 practice problems, hints and solutions indispensable for students preparing for the William Lowell Putnam and other mathematical competitions. Problems suggested by a variety of sources: Crux Mathematicorum, Mathematics Magazine, the American Mathematical Monthly and others. Preface to the First Edition. Sources. 1988 edition.

0120488612The Bulletin of the American Mathematical Society acclaimed this text as "a welcome addition" to the literature of nonstandard analysis, a field related to number theory, algebra, and topology. The first half presents a self-contained introduction to the subject, and the second part explores applications to stochastic analysis and mathematical physics....

The authors have grouped problems to illustrate a number of important techniques, and provided enlightening solutions in all cases. There are numerous essays on diverse topics that are enlivened by fresh ideas. This book not only teaches techniques but gives a flavour of their past, present and possible future implications.

Here is a third trip around the mathematical circle, and, at least for some time, it must be the last such trip. I cannot deny that it has been fun making these trips, but there are so many other, and more serious, things I wish to write that it is high time I set the mathematical stories and anecdotes aside—with somewhat more than half of my collection now in print. Except for the first quadrant and the tail end of the fourth quadrant, the items in this third set of stories are classified by geography, in contrast to the classification by chronology in In Mathematical Circles and by subject matter in Mathematical Circles Revisited. ...

After receiving letters of outcry when he tried to end his popular "Mathematical Circles" series, Howard Eves put together this "Return to Mathematical Circles", another collection of mathematical tales. From the story of Newton's original bed to a remarkable factorization, Eve's second collection of 360 stories will help you give your students a new understanding of mathematics' place in history and in their everyday lives. This book will undoubtedly be as as useful to teachers at all levels of mathematics as have been the previous "Circle" books. ...

Students and professionals in the fields of mathematics, physics, engineering, and economics will find this reference work invaluable. A classic resource for working with special functions, standard trig, and exponential logarithmic definitions and extensions, it features 29 sets of tables, some to as high as 20 places.
