Mathematical Analysis: A Very Short Introduction
Richard Earl
The 17th-century calculus of Newton and Leibniz was built on shaky foundations, and it wasn't until the 18th and 19th centuries that mathematicians ‒ especially Bolzano, Cauchy, and Weierstrass ‒ began to establish a rigorous basis for the subject. The resulting discipline is now known to mathematicians as analysis .
This book, aimed at readers with some grounding in mathematics, describes the nascent evolution of mathematical analysis, its development as a subject in its own right, and its wide-ranging applications in mathematics and science, modelling reality from acoustics to fluid dynamics, from biological systems to quantum theory.
