A Course in Calculus and Real Analysis (eBook, PDF)

Beschreibung

This book provides a self-contained and rigorous introduction to calculus of functions of one variable, in a presentation which emphasizes the structural development of calculus. Giving due importance is given to computational techniques and applications, the authors distinguish between the intrinsic definition of a geometric notion and its analytic characterization. Throughout, the authors highlight the fact that calculus provides a firm foundation to concepts and results that are generally encountered in high school and accepted on faith; for example, the classical result that the ratio of circumference to diameter is the same for all circles. A number of topics are treated here in considerable detail that may be inadequately covered in calculus courses and glossed over in real analysis courses. Each chapter contains examples and a large selection of exercises, as well as "Notes and Comments" describing salient features of the exposition, related developments and references to relevant literature.

Rezensionen

"This book would be a valuable asset to a university library and that many instructors would do well to have a copy of this book in their personal libraries. In addition, I believe that some students would benefit if they possessed a copy of this book to use for reference purposes." (Jonathan Lewin, MAA Reviews, April 15, 2019)
