D. J. H. Garling is an Emeritus Reader in Mathematical Analysis at the University of Cambridge. He has 50 years' experience of teaching undergraduate students in most areas of pure mathematics, but particularly in analysis.
'Garling is a gifted expositor and the book under review really conveys the beauty of the subject, not an easy task. [It] comes with appropriate examples when needed and has plenty of well-chosen exercises as may be expected from a textbook. As the author points out in the introduction, a newcomer may be advised, on a first reading, to skip part one and take the required properties of the ordered real field as axioms; later on, as the student matures, he/she may go back to a detailed reading of the skipped part. This is good advice.' Felipe Zaldivar, MAA Reviews 'This work is the first in a three-volume set dedicated to real and complex analysis that 'mathematical undergraduates may expect to meet in the first two years or so ... of analysis' ... The exposition is superb: open and nontelegraphic. Highly recommended. Upper-division undergraduates and graduate students.' D. Robbins, Choice 'These three volumes cover very thoroughly the whole of undergraduate analysis and much more besides.'
