SynopsisElementary Real Analysis is written in a rigorous, yet reader friendly style with motivational and historical material that emphasizes the big picture” and makes proofs seem natural rather than mysterious. Introduces key concepts such as point set theory, uniform continuity of functions and uniform convergence of sequences of functions. Covers metric spaces. Ideal for readers interested in mathematics, particularly in advanced calculus and real analysis., For undergraduate courses in Advanced Calculus and Real Analysis, as well as for beginning graduate students in mathematics. For a one or two semester sequence. Elementary Real Analysis is written in a reader friendly style with motivational and historical material that emphasizes the "big picture" and makes proofs seem natural rather than mysterious. It introduces key concepts such as point set theory, uniform continuity of functions and uniform convergence of sequences of functions. It is designed to prepare students for graduate work in mathematical analysis., For courses in Elementary Calculus as well as for beginning graduate students in mathematics. The only text of its kind, Elementary Real Analysis presents familiar concepts from calculus at a more rigorous level. It introduces key concepts such as point set theory, uniform continuity of functions and uniform convergence of sequences of functions. *NEW - Motivational discussion and historical asides - Much more than are commonly found at this level. *NEW - Enrichment and advanced sections. *NEW - Rigorous but very reader friendly. *Unique coverage of metric spaces.
