Six essays in mathematical concepts and reasoning, some of which are recreational, presupposing basic calculus knowledge. This less commonly read text with some unique perspectives from its three authors introduces and skims through with decent rigor topics ranging from analytic geometry and number theory to introductory game theory, various discrete mathematics topics and puzzles, including historical context and anecdotes where welcomed, all while remaining accessible to anyone with a strong understanding of relatively basic arithmetic and algebraic concepts. From the Preface: "Most of high school mathematics is concerned with technical manipulation of mathematical quantities, the exception being Euclidean geometry. Thus the student does not get a real introduction to the mathematical world. The same limitation applies to introductory calculus, which at the first-year level is almost entirely a tool for further study. — 'Excursions Into Mathematics' is designed to acquaint the general reader with some of the flavor of mathematics. — Each excursion deals with a single area of mathematical interest and builds around it a body of theory."
