Overview

Curious Curves is self-contained and unified in presentation. This book is suitable for a topics course, capstone course, or senior seminar; it is also intended for independent study by students and others interested in mathematics.Curves can often provide a better representation of natural phenomena than do the figures of classical geometry. Thus the content - presented with an emphasis on the geometric intuition characteristic of the study of curves - is highly relevant not only for people working in mathematics, but also those in other sciences. The explanations are detailed and illustrative to capture the interest of the reader, as well as complete to provide the necessary background information needed to go further into the subject.

The presentation is clear and well written. The book is certainly well suited for an undergraduate topics course or for independent studies by undergraduate students and others interested in mathematics. The book is also well suited for an undergraduate seminar or as a rich source of research projects for undergraduate summer research programmes. -- Mathematical Reviews Mathematical Reviews Each of the chapters contains a lot of exercises, which are very useful for understanding the material. Also, many problems and suggested projects are rather challenging, which may encourage the interest of the reader to the subject. -- Zentralblatt MATH Zentralblatt MATH
