This self-contained work introduces the main ideas and fundamental methods of analysis at the advanced undergraduate/graduate level. It provides the historical context out of which these concepts emerged, and aims to develop connections between analysis and other mathematical disciplines (e.g., topology and geometry) as well as physics and engineering. A rigorous exposition, numerous examples, beautiful illustrations, good problems, comprehensive bibliography, and index are some of the key features of the book. Excellent for self -study or the classroom.
