Alice in Mathland

Alice in Mathland, is an entertaining and instructional tale of Alice's journey (with her Yellow Pig guide) through Mathland. I wrote it for my undergraduate thesis (Sep 1999 - May 2000). You can read my thesis proposal or jump right in to the thesis itself in PDF or HTML (3MB .pdf file, 179 pages).

HTML, viewable tex, tex downloads, and dvi downloads for each section are available via the table at right. To tex the document yourself, you will also need the class definitions and the images (available by request only because they are huge).
