Description:

Advanced Calculus highlights the connections between calculus and linear algebra and provides a mathematically sophisticated introduction to functional analytic concepts. The book stresses that proofs must be written down, scrutinized step-by-step and rewritten whenever there is doubt. Unlike the competition, this book approaches the rigorous foundations of calculus in a manner that reorients thinking in the directions taken by modern analysis.
