La crítica ha reconocido sin dificultades la evidencia que golpea de inmediato al lector de "Las muertas": estar ante una obra maestra. Y es que este libro, que sin duda se encuentra entre los mejores trabajos de Jorge Ibargüengoitia, arrebata inmediatamente gracias al brillo especial de las virtudes que caracterizan el conjunto de la obra del autor de Guanajuato: estilo directo pero elegante, personajes reconocibles pero memorables, situaciones absurdas pero realistas (o, incluso, reales), etc. En algunas de estas cualidades, tales como la división de la trama en escenas, la fuerza de los diálogos o la concisión de las descripciones, que en ocasiones rayan en la acotación, reconocemos la impronta del teatro, género en el que Ibargüengoitia se inició en la literatura. Sin embargo, estas virtudes de dramaturgo vienen de la mano de técnicas novelísticas muy maduras, todo ello salpimentado con el humor negro que caracterizaba al mexicano y que en "Las muertas" llega a extremos tal vez inquietantes.

This problem-solving book is an introduction to the study of Diophantine equations, a class of equations in which only integer solutions are allowed. The material is organized in two parts: Part I introduces the reader to elementary methods necessary in solving Diophantine equations, such as the decomposition method, inequalities, the parametric method, modular arithmetic, mathematical induction, Fermat's method of infinite descent, and the method of quadratic fields; Part II contains complete solutions to all exercises in Part I. The presentation features some classical Diophantine equations, including linear, Pythagorean, and some higher degree equations, as well as exponential Diophantine equations. Many of the selected exercises and problems are original or are presented with original solutions.§An Introduction to Diophantine Equations: A Problem-Based Approach is intended for undergraduates, advanced high school students and teachers, mathematical contest participants including Olympiad and Putnam competitors as well as readers interested in essential mathematics. The work uniquely presents unconventional and non-routine examples, ideas, and techniques.
