ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Boas, Ralph Philip / Boas, Harold P., PUBLISHER: Mathematical Association of America (MAA), This is a revised, updated, and augmented edition of a classic Carus monograph with a new chapter on integration and its applications.

For readers with a background in calculus, the book is suitable either for self-study or for supplemental reading in a course on advanced calculus or real analysis. Students of mathematics will find here the sense of wonder that was associated with the subject in its early days.
