About this Item

Paperback. This book provides a rigorous course in the calculus of functions of a real variable. Its gentle approach, particularly in its early chapters, makes it especially suitable for students who are not headed for graduate school but, for those who are, this book also provides the opportunity to engage in a penetrating study of real analysis. The companion on-screen version of this text contains hundreds of links to alternative approaches, more complete explanations and solutions to exercises; links that make it more friendly than any printed book could be. In addition, there are links to a wealth of optional material that an instructor can select for a more advanced course, and that students can use as a reference long after their first course has ended. The on-screen version also provides exercises that can be worked interactively with the help of the computer algebra systems that are bundled with Scientific Notebook.

Review

"...the CD-ROM that accompanies this book provides hints to problems and alternative approaches to the material...Examples of alternatives provided on the disc include continuity in metric spaces, and the Riemann-Stieltjes integral. The CD-ROM program is written in Scientific Workplace 4.0 and can be viewed using the free download of Scientific Viewer 4.0, running under Windows. Recommended." Choice
