Vasc's new book

Yes, I just found out that Vasc [Vasile Cartoaje] has published some of his works. All of you interested here's a small introduction of his book:

Introduction
This work blends together classic inequality results with brand new problems, some of which devised only a few weeks ago. What could be special about it when so many inequality problem books have already been written? We strongly believe that even if the topic we plunge into is so general and popular our book is very different. Of course, it is quite easy to say this, so we will give some supporting arguments. This book contains a large variety of problems involving inequalities, most of them difficult, questions that became famous in competitions because of their beauty and difficulty. And, even more importantly, throughout the text we employ our own solutions and propose a large number of new original problems. There are memorable problems in this book and memorable solutions as well. This is why this work will clearly appeal to students who are used to use Cauchy-Schwarz, Schur, AM-GM, etc. as a verb and want to further improve their algebraic skills and techniques. They will find here tough problems, new results, and even problems that could lead to research. The student who is not as keen in this field will also be exposed to a wide variety of moderate and easy problems, ideas, techniques, and
all the ingredients leading to a good preparation for mathematical contests. Some of the problems we chose to present are known, but we have included them here with new solutions which show the diversity of ideas pertaining to inequalities. Anyone will find here a challenge to prove his or her skills. If we have not convinced you, then please take a look at the problems from this book and hopefully you will agree with us.


You can buy the book from Gil Publishing House for 40 euros (I think). Contact Mircea Lascu for more details.

Actually, the book exposes in the chapters 2-7 some new and original methods and strategies
in solving inequalities. In author’s opinion, this is the main feature of the book.
The book is 480 pages long and has the following contents.

1.Warm-up problem set 5
2. Starting from some special fourth degree inequalities 67
3. Inequalities with right convex and left concave function 143
4. On Popoviciu’s Inequality 193
5. Inequalities involving EV-Theorem 209
6. Arithmetic/Geometric Compensation Method 267
7. Symmetric inequalities with three variables involving fractions 301
8. Final problem set 371
List of Symbols and Glossary 465

I agree with pvthuan - it would be nice to see some sample pages not only of this book but also of the others. You could also attach some small descriptions to all of your titles published in English on your website. Anyway I'm going to buy them all Mr. Green

Thank you very much, Vasc.

You are really a super clever solver of inequalities and I hope a day you will write a super book with all your beautiful inequalities.
