Summary

This course in real analysis is directed at advanced undergraduates and beginning graduate students in mathematics and related fields. Presupposing only a modest background in real analysis or advanced calculus, the book offers something of value to specialists and nonspecialists alike. The text covers three major topics: metric and normed linear spaces, function spaces, and Lebesgue measure and integration on the line. In an informal, down-to-earth style, the author gives motivation and overview of new ideas, while still supplying full details and complete proofs. He provides a great many exercises and suggestions for further study.

What They're Saying

Critics Review

’… extremely well written: very entertaining and motivating.’ Adhemar Bultheel, Bulletin of the London Mathematical Society ‘The author writes lucidly in a friendly, readable style and he is strong at motivating, anticipating and reviewing the various themes that permeate the text … The overwhelming impression is that Real analysis was a labour of love for the author, written with a genuine reverence for both its beautiful subject matter and its creators, refiners and teachers down the ages. As such - and high praise indeed - it will sit very happily alongside classics such as Apostol’s Mathematical analysis, Royden’s Real analysis, Rudin’s Real and complex analysis and Hewitt and Stromberg’s Real and abstract analysis.’ The Mathematical Gazette
