| Introduction to Analysis by Dover Publications Better than 5 stars!! | | For $[...] you will get an unbelievably clear explanation of metric spaces, continuous functions, differentiation and Riemann integration. This text is a tremendous accompaniment to Baby Rudin (this book along with Apostol's Mathematical Analysis (buy it used) will take you over the hump in a real analysis class using Rudin). Also, Rosenlicht taught at a time when real analysis was presented using diagrams - a pedagogical tool that has fallen out of some favor. While not numerous, the diagrams presented are very helpful in describing the concept (e.g., connectivity, the nested set property...). I found these to be invaluable. The writing is clear and the proofs are straightforward. The extremely useful information in this book will set you back around 6 cents per page - do the math on some other texts and you will see what a bargain this book is. | | Introduction to Analysis by Dover Publications A lovely introduction | Introduction to Analysis by Rosenlicht is a lovely introduction to advanced undergraduate, and beginning graduate mathematical analysis.
*Topics covered*: The fundamentals of analysis, including measure theory, Fourier series, Fourier integrals, function spaces, including Hilbert spaces.
Book Comparison:
Walter Rudin's "Real and Complex Analysis is a classic graduate level text book. The level is somewhere between two popular books by W. Rudin: Principles of Math Analysis ("Baby-Rudin") and "Real and Complex."
Here is a brief comparison: Rosenlicht vs Rudin: Rudin's 'Real and Complex' has become an institution, but conventional wisdom will have it that Rosenlicht is a lot gentler on students, and easier to get started with; more warm-up exercises: Rosenlicht stresses motivation a bit more, the exercises are easier, and finally Rosenlicht gets to touch upon a few applications; fashionable these days. Rudin's book is more advanced, goes more in depth, and it has stood the test of time.
The material in Rosenlicht is somewhat flexible, and it can be tailored to a variety of introductory analysis courses, from function theory to integration, to functional analysis. Review by Palle Jorgensen, August 2007.
| | Introduction to Analysis by Dover Publications Superb! | | This is an excellent book. I'm a mechanical engineer and i found this book very useful for all kind of engineers. Don't hesitate, just buy it. If you want more complex books, buy the Apostol's mathematical analysis, but only if you have all the necesary knowledge as a background, because is very difficult to asimilate. | | Introduction to Analysis by Dover Publications Great book | | I don't know about you, but I'm not a fan of large books. His presentation is terse, and very readable. I bought this for self study and was initially concerned with the lack of solutions. But as I continued my studies I actally found it aided learning, I stuck through problems that I would have normally just looked up the solutions for. If you want to teach yourself, its length and writing style is for you. My only complaint is the lack complex analysis, he does however present you with some of the basic results as exercises. | | Introduction to Analysis by Dover Publications Solid introduction to analysis | | I used this book in conjunction with Little Rudin while studying analysis. While Rudin provided deeper insight, it provided almost no motivation or exposition. Rosenlicht and Little Rudin are very good complements to one another. I found Rosenlicht much easier to learn from, but use Rudin as a reference now that I understand the theory. | | Introduction to Analysis by Dover Publications Product Description | Unusually clear, accessible coverage of set theory, the real number system, metric spaces, continuous functions, Riemann integration, multiple integrals and more. Written for junior and senior undergraduates. Problems at end of each chapter cover a wide range of difficulty. Assumes a year of calculus.

User-Centered URL Design
Jesse James Garrett on human-friendly URLs: “The advent of content management systems has been a boon in many ways, but the readability of URLs is not one of them.” Of course, it’s important to point out that some CMSes do allow one to use human-readable URLs. In fact, I’d be willing to state Brent’s Law of CMS URLs: the more expensive the CMS, the crappier the URLs.
