Editorial Review: Product Description: This is an advanced text for the one- or two-semester course in analysis, taught primarily to math, science, computer science, and electrical engineering majors at the junior, senior or graduate level. Average Rating:
 Rating:  - One of a KindI normally don't review books that already have this many reviews, especially when I agree so much with the reviews that already exist. But I'm teaching out of green Rudin for the first time this semester, 20 years after getting to know the book well as a student, and I find myself so enthusiastic about it again, that I just had to chime in with an "Amen" to the other positive reviews. When it comes to mathematical writing, it doesn't get any more exquisitely elegant than this. Probably ... Read More Rating: - Rewards you again and againA few words for the person thinking of buying and using this book. First, go for it. Don't be scared. But you need to be prepped a little on how it all fits together. Roughly, it breaks up into a course on real analysis (with quite a lot of supplementary material, especially on Fourier analysis), and then breaks into complex analysis in chapter 10. Now on the first part--You might be tempted to ask "what am I learning?" as you start on the first chapter. It seems like ... Read More Rating: - I love this book!I love this book, even though I have not absorbed more than a small portion of it yet. I find this to be a much better book than the "baby Rudin", which struck me as dry, overly concise, and without motivation. This book provides ample motivation, and although it proceeds in great generality, proceeds at a reasonable pace. The best thing about this book, however, is the spirit of it--the integrated approach to analysis that Rudin takes is unique and greatly appreciated--Rudin is, like Lang, ... Read More Rating: - My 2 centsThere are some excellent reviews here for this outstanding book, so I will try to avoid repetition. In preparation for my qualifying exams in graduate school, two of my colleagues and I did all of the exercises in Rudin (give or take a couple, no more). What I found striking at the time was how Rudin took three subjects -- measure theory, functional analysis, and complex analysis -- and weaved them together seamlessly. It is not that I believed them to be separate subjects, but until then I hadn't realized ... Read More Rating:  - Necessary, Necessary, NecessaryWhile I would not recommend this text to someone wishing to teach herself real and complex analysis, having this book in your personal mathematics library is a must for anyone seeking to further her education in higher mathematics. It's one of the most commonly used undergraduate texts, referred to by some as the "Bible". If you can afford it though, I would recommend that you pick up a copy of Baby Rudin to use as a reference. The first two chapters in combination with Bartle's text on Lebesgue ... Read More |
