This book discusses some of the first principles of modern
analysis. I t can be used for courses at several levels, depending
upon the background and ability of the students. It was written on
the premise that today's good students have unexpected enthusiasm
and nerve. When hard work is put to them, they work harder and ask
for more. The honors course (at the University of Wisconsin) which
inspired this book was, I think, more fun than the book itself. And
better. But then there is acting in teaching, and a typewriter is a
poor substitute for an audience. The spontaneous, creative disorder
that characterizes an exciting course becomes silly in a book. To
write, one must cut and dry. Yet, I hope enough of the spontaneity,
enough of the spirit of that course, is left to enable those using
the book to create exciting courses of their own. Exercises in this
book are not designed for drill. They are designed to clarify the
meanings of the theorems, to force an understanding of the proofs,
and to call attention to points in a proof that might otherwise be
overlooked. The exercises, therefore, are a real part of the
theory, not a collection of side issues, and as such nearly all of
them are to be done. Some drill is, of course, necessary,
particularly in the calculation of integrals.
