Lucid with good notation

An excellent reference work, with some thoughtful choices of notation, which always helps. I thought the differential geometry sections were a bit thin, so if that is what you after look elsewhere. If you want a good book on the core of multi-variate calculus this one will serve you well. He proves everything, which is nice too.

Great book

Yes, a bit oldfashioned and black and white, but if you want attention to detail and rigorous proofs of all the theorems (gets to be quite advanced) this is a book for you. I taught myself after learning basic diff/int calculus. If you ever read a calc. book and get annoyed by those "..it can be shown.." lines, look in this little text and chances are it IS shown here.

very interesting

Although I found a few typos, and a few pages could be clearer, I still think this is an excellent book. *Every* theorem is proven rigorously, with nice examples. A great reference to have. It will introduce you to advanced analysis and from there you can go on to real analysis and set theory.

very good

an excellent book for those who are confident with and interested in mathematics. I especially appreciated the meaningful problems and answers which helped me understand without the tedium experienced in my first year calculus courses.

Can't put it down!!!

This book is amazing. It is one of the most excititng math texts I have ever studied out of. I encourage any math or physics undergrad to purchase a copy pronto. It is great for self-instruction, and it provides you a much more mature explanation compared to all the "dumbdowned" texts which are taught out of in most universities today. I can't wait to get done with this review so I can get back to it.
