BIC Classification: PBKA. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational; (U) Tertiary Education (US: College). Dimension: 255 x 182 x 14. Weight in Grams: 492.
This is the first modern calculus book to be organized axiomatically and to survey the subject's applicability to science and engineering. A challenging exposition of calculus in the European style, it is an excellent text for a first-year university honors course or for a third-year analysis course. The calculus is built carefully from the axioms with all the standard results deduced from these axioms. The concise construction, by design, provides maximal flexibility for the instructor and allows the student to see the overall flow of the development. At the same time, the book reveals the origins of the calculus in ... Read more
