This book outlines an elementary, one-semester course which exposes students to both the process of rigor, and the rewards inherent in taking an axiomatic approach to the study of functions of a real variable. The aim of a course in real analysis should be to challenge and improve mathematical intuition rather than to verify it. The philosophy of this book is to focus attention on questions which give analysis its inherent fascination.

The product was shipped as soon as possible and I got this package before I even expected it. The book was in good condition as stated. There was a lot of writing and highlighting in the book but it's to be expected because the book is not new. It was at a very reasonable price. So overall I am very happy with this purchase.

This is a real product for students who want to get "A" grade in Analysis.

It's a good introductory book, but it leaves a prodigious amount of the Theorems as exercises. This makes studying out of the book very difficult in a time crunch. Still, easy to understand the explanations that are given.
By Randy Z. Qian
I attempted to teach out of this book and my students found it difficult since many of its exercises aren't properly prefaced in the sections for which they were intended. The ordering of the ideas is also haphazard and the general presentation assumes far more mathematical knowledge and familiarity with basic concepts than can be gleaned from its pages alone. An extension to the introductory section on set theory and mappings would be helpful to the presentation. Many sections are unnecessarily chatty in the wrong places and unfocused. It is an inexpensive book, but Bartle and Sherbert's masterful introduction is well worth 5 times its price.

I currently own Baby Rudin, Kolmogorov and Fomin, Marsden, John Royden, Probability and Analysis and this book
I think if this book provides a solutions manual, it will be the best self-study book. Sure Rudin is elegant and very general in a sense that it covers huge amount of materials through pithy and concise yet rigorous proofs but this is exactly why i don't think it is a good book to start.
When i started with Rudin because of its fame, I was very frustrated because of the density of the book. It is very heavy reading that you need to explicate in your head to understand. This is all good and well if you already grasp the idea but for first time learners rudin should be used as a reference. ( i am sure lots of people disagree, this is just my view).
This book on the other hand is super friendly and when you read it, it does the explicating of the ideas for you. it is as if you are listening to a professor who does the thinking for you. OF COURSE this is not GOOD for learning how to proof stuff. That, one must learn by himself. However, When one wants to learn the ideas and grasp the general overview and the beauty of analysis, it serves one well.
I recommend this book to anyone who wants to leisurely yet rigorously learn analysis. usually, those two words are oxymorons but this book combines them - leisure and rigor come together.
