This text represents a new entry level course in mathematics for students in programs such as mathematics, the sciences and engineering, which require additional courses in mathematics. With enough material for a two semester course, the text is written at approximately the level of introductory calculus. Principles and Practice of Mathematics was developed over a four year period, under the direction of COMAP, with NSF support. It is an alternative point of entry into the undergraduate mathematics curriculum, one which presents for students a wide spectrum of the contemporary world of mathematics. By emphasizing the breadth and variety of modern mathematical inquiry and applications, the text provides a view of the subject that is not experienced by students in the traditional calculus course. The author team and advisors were selected for their experience with undergraduate education. Among our authors are several who have written successful textbooks. The entire project has evolved under the editorial supervision of veteran COMAP author, Walter Meyer, Adolph University.

Gallian, Joseph Anthony was born on January 5, 1942 in New Kennington, Pennsylvania, United States. Son of Joseph Anthony Gallian and Alvira Helen (Gardner) Strauss.
Gallian completed his Doctor of Philosophy thesis, entitled "Two-Step Centralizers in Finite p-Groups", at the University of Notre Dame in 1971 under the supervision of Karl Kronstein.
He has been a professor at the University of Minnesota Duluth since 1972. In addition to teaching math classes, he has taught a Humanities course called the "The Lives and Music of the Beatles" for more than 25 years and a liberal arts course on math and sports. Gallian has authored or edited five books (including Contemporary Abstract Algebra, Houghton Mifflin.

And Proceedings of the Conference on Promoting Undergraduate Research in Mathematics (editor), American Mathematical Society) and over 100 articles He earned media attention in 1991 when he determined the methods used by Minnesota and many other states for assigning drivers" license numbers.
Every summer since 1977 (except for 1978), Gallian has run a Research Experience for Undergraduates (REU) program at the University of Minnesota Duluth.
The program has been funded by the University of Minnesota Duluth grants from the National Science Foundation (30+ years) and the National Security Agency (25+ years). lieutenant is one of the oldest and longest running REUs in the country. As of the end of 2011, the program has had 178 undergraduate participants and has produced more than 180 publications in main stream professional journals.
More than 100 Duluth REU students have received a Doctor of Philosophy degree.
Gallian served a 2-year term as the President of the Mathematical Association of America starting in January 2007. Gallian, Gallian, (Editor) Gallian, Donald J. Albers & Gerald L.
