Spivak s celebrated textbook is widely held as one of the finest introductions to mathematical analysis His aim is to present calculus as the first real encounter with mathematics it is the place to learn how logical reasoning combined with fundamental concepts can be developed into a rigorous mathematical theory rather than a bunch of tools and techniques learned by rote Since analysis is a subject students traditionally find difficult to grasp, Spivak provides leisurely explanations, a profusion of examples, a wide range of exercises and plenty of illustrations in an easy going approach that enlightens difficult concepts and rewards effort Calculus will continue to be regarded as a modern classic, ideal for honours students and mathematics majors, who seek an alternative to doorstop textbooks on calculus, and the formidable introductions to real analysis.
