The third edition of this well known text continues to provide a solid foundation in
mathematical analysis for undergraduate and first-year graduate students. The text begins with
a discussion of the real number system as a complete ordered field. (Dedekind's construction is
now treated in an appendix to Chapter I.) The topological background needed for the development
of convergence continuity differentiation and integration is provided in Chapter 2. There is
a new section on the gamma function and many new and interesting exercises are included. >This
text is part of the Walter Rudin Student Series in Advanced Mathematics.
