Synopsis

For one/two-semester, junior/senior-level courses in Advanced Calculus, Analysis I, Real Analysis taken by math majors. The first semester is usually a general requirement; the second semester is often an option for the more motivated students.

Designed to challenge advanced students while bringing weaker students up to speed, this text is an advantageous alternative to most other analysis texts which either tend to be “too easy” (designed for an Intermediate Analysis course) or “too difficult” (designed for students headed for a Ph.D. in Pure Mathematics)―both of which usually tend to slight multidimensional material. Hailed for its readability, practicality, and flexibility, this text presents the Fundamental Theorems from a very practical point of view. Introduction to Analysis starts slowly and carefully, with a focused presentation of the material; saves extreme abstraction for the second semester; provides optional enrichment sections; includes many routine exercises and examples; and liberally supports (with examples and hints) what little theory is developed in the exercises.

About the Author

William Wade received his PhD in harmonic analysis from the University of California―Riverside. He has been a professor of the Department of Mathematics at the University of Tennessee for more than forty years. During that time, he has received multiple awards including two Fulbright Scholarships, the Chancellor's Award for Research and Creative Achievements, the Dean's Award for Extraordinary Service, and the National Alumni Association Outstanding Teaching Award.

 

Wade’s research interests include problems of uniqueness, growth and dyadic harmonic analysis, on which he has published numerous papers, two books and given multiple presentations on three continents. His current publication, An Introduction to Analysis,is now in its fourth edition.

 

In his spare time, Wade loves to travel and take photographs to document his trips. He is also musically inclined, and enjoys playing classical music, mainly baroque on the trumpet, recorder, and piano.
