Abstract
Most mathematics books have an introductory chapter which mentions those subjects the author deems necessary for understanding the material which is the subject of the book. All too frequently this chapter is not read, largely because it tends to be disconnected and incomplete, and, therefore, not a coherent platform on which to base the remainder of the book. Nonetheless such a chapter is essential because it sets the tone for both author and reader. For a beginner in the subject it can prove to be useful.
