Title overview

Analysis with an Introduction to Proof eases your transition to advanced mathematics, building the foundation that is essential to help you succeed in real analysis (often considered the most difficult course in the undergrad math curriculum). It introduces logic and emphasizes the structure and nature of the arguments used, helping you move from earlier, computationally oriented courses to working with proofs. Helpful examples and practice problems, numerous drawings, and selected hints/answers make the material both readable and user friendly.

The 6th Edition welcomes new co-author Richard Ligo, adds new GeoGebra-powered Interactive Figures, expands on the text's hallmark strengths, and more.
