A great book by one of 20th century's greatest mathematician
|
|
you rarely get a chance to read an introductary text by a master, Kolmogorov is one of 20th century's greatest mathematician, who is solely responsible for the foundatioin of modern probability theory. and the text exhibits Kolmogorov's typical style: authority and accessibility, it's truly under priced.

fun and transparent

I reciently graduated with a degree in math and physics. I liked this subject matter of this book for two reasons. First it is a good extension of the analysis I learned as an undergraduate. Second it puts the math(functionals, opperators, ...) used in physics classes such as quantum mechanics on a firm base. It also treats modestly applied problems such as existance and uniqueness of diff eq's which I have not seen in the limited number of other texts I have perused. I found the text to be extremely readable as far as intermediate analisys texts go. I highly recomend this to anyone with some background in analisys, or to physics students who want to know more about the math they use.

Seminal work on real analysis
|
|
Don't let the title fool you. This book will take you from sophomore real analysis through the first year of graduate analysis, covering set theory, topology, functionals, integration, and differentiation. This stands out as one of the best math books on my shelf.
