Mathematical Analysis: A Very Short Introduction by Richard Earl (English) Paper

Description: Mathematical Analysis by Richard Earl Richard Earl 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. FORMAT Paperback LANGUAGE English CONDITION Brand New Publisher Description Very Short Introductions: Brilliant, sharp, inspiringThe 17th-century calculus of Newton and Leibniz was built on shaky foundations, and it wasnt 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 asanalysis.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 fromacoustics to fluid dynamics, from biological systems to quantum theory.ABOUT THE SERIES: The Very Short Introductions series from Oxford University Press contains hundreds of titles in almost every subject area.
