• wants (or needs) to truly understand math,
• prefers visual learning,
• likes finding the essentials at a glance,
• only wants to read what’s relevant right now.

What makes this book unique?

• Every page is self-contained and easy to follow.
• Concepts are explained in a conversational style.

• When does an improper integral of a function exist?

This book is a translation of the original German edition , 3rd edition, by Adriane Gründers, published by Springer-Verlag GmbH, DE in 2025. The translation was done with the help of an artificial intelligence machine translation tool. A subsequent human revision was done in close cooperation with native speakers, but the book might still read stylistically differently from a conventional translation.

Über Autor(innen)

Adriane Gründers (pseudonym) holds a PhD in mathematical physics and works in a science-oriented company. Sharing mathematics with others is a matter close to her heart. She is firmly convinced that many more people could understand and enjoy mathematics than is currently the case. This book aims to contribute to that vision.
