Conditionally Covergent Series Looking to prove that the following series converges conditionally 
$$\sum _{n=1}^{\infty}\frac{(-1)^{n+1}(1+n)^{\frac{1}{n}}}{n}$$
Plugging in some terms I see that,
$$\sum _{n=1}^{\infty}\frac{(-1)^{n+1}(1+n)^{\frac{1}{n}}}{n} = 2 - \frac{-\sqrt{3}}{2} + \frac{^4\sqrt 4}{3}-...$$ so this series is alternating
Using the alternating series test,
let $a_n =\frac{(1+n)^{\frac{1}{n}}}{n}$
$\lim a_n = \frac{(\frac{1}{n}+ \frac{n}{n})^{\frac{1}{n}}}{\frac{n}{n}} = 
\lim1^{\frac{1}{n}} = 1 \ne 0$. Therefore by the Alternating series test, this diverges. If this working is correct then how do I show its conditionally convergent?
 A: Hint: Use the squeeze theorem:
$$\frac{n^{1/n}}{n}\leq \frac{(1+n)^{1/n}}{n} \leq \frac{(2n)^{1/n}}{n}$$
A: Take
$$\sum_{n=1}^\infty\frac{(-1)^{n+1}}n\cdot\sqrt[n]{1+n}$$
Now, $\;\sum\limits_{n=1}^\infty\frac{(-1)^{n+1}}n\;$ converges, whereas $\;b_n:=\sqrt[n]{1+n}\;$ is monotone and bounded, thus by Abel's Test we have convergence
Added on request: It is not absolutely convergent because
$$\frac{\frac{\sqrt[n]{1+n}}n}{\frac1n}=\sqrt[n]{1+n}\xrightarrow[n\to\infty]{}1$$
and thus our series converges iff the harmonic one does (this  is the limit comparison test), but the harmonic one does not converge...
A: By the AM-GM inequality,
$$(n+1)^{1/n}=\left(\frac{2}{1}\cdot\frac{3}{2}\cdot\ldots\cdot\frac{n+1}{n}\right)^{1/n}\leq 1+\frac{H_n}{n}\leq 1+\frac{\log n}{n}\tag{1} $$
hence:
$$ \sum_{n=1}^{N}\frac{(-1)^{n+1}(n+1)^{1/n}}{n} = \sum_{n=1}^{N}\frac{(-1)^{n+1}}{n} + \sum_{n=1}^{N}\frac{(-1)^{n+1}\left[(n+1)^{1/n}-1\right]}{n} \tag{2} $$
and the original series is the sum between a well-known conditionally convergent series and an absolutely convergent series (by the $p$-test). Since $\sum_{n\geq 1}\frac{(-1)^{n+1}}{n}$ is not absolutely convergent, the original series is conditionally convergent but not absolutely convergent.
