Most people, when they think of mathematics, think first of numbers
and equations-this number (x) = that number (y). But professional
mathematicians, in dealing with quantities that can be ordered
according to their size, often are more interested in unequal
magnitudes that areequal. This book provides an introduction to the
fascinating world of inequalities, beginning with a systematic
discussion of the relation "greater than" and the meaning of
"absolute values" of numbers, and ending with descriptions of some
unusual geometries. In the course of the book, the reader wil
encounter some of the most famous inequalities in mathematics.
