Aimed primarily at upper undergraduate and graduate students.

Review

"The book is extremely pleasant to read, flowing easily through and between topics while still containing significant content. The structure includes frequent use of footnotes and notes in the margin which are a clean way of including some detailed, technical information without breaking up the overall discussion. In addition to the exposition, the exercises provide an equally valuable component of this book."
