Once you have a firm grasp of the techniques, you'll be better equipped to read understand and actuary do proofs. You'll learn when each technique is likely to be successful, based on keywords that appear in the theorem. This Fifth Edition features a complete revision and expansion of the exercises in the main body of the text.

In order to make the material more relevant, the exercises in each chapter have been revised and expanded. New and more complete discussions are included on how to use a previously-proved proposition in both the forward and backward processes. The fifth edition also presents new, self-contained chapters on uniqueness, induction, either/or, and max/min methods. Several final examples of how to read and do proofs are included in the final chapter to reinforce the reader's knowledge of the various proof techniques.
