This book is a translation of the original German edition Mathe übersichtlich: Von den Basics bis zur Analysis, 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.
