The MAA New Mathematical Library (NML)

The publisher, the Mathematical Association of America, wrote of the creation of this library when they introduced it in Volume 1: "The New Mathematical Library (NML) was begun in 1961 by the School Mathematics Study Group to make available to high school students short expository books on various topics not usually covered in the high school syllabus. In a decade the NML matured into a steadily growing series of some twenty titles of interest not only to the originally intended audience, but to college students and teachers at all levels. Previously published by Random House and L. W. Singer, the NML became a publication series of the Mathematical Association of America (MAA) in 1975. Under the auspices of the MAAA the NML will continue to grow and will remain dedicated to its original and expanded purposes."
