“Buck’s text is a classic and a gem of an advanced calculus text. In recent decades there has been a proliferation of Real Analysis/Advanced Calculus texts but Buck’s text is unique in the combination of its perspicuity of exposition and the way it is able to communicate very abstract ideas in unusually concrete, computational, and intuitive terms. Its strength is its ability to deconstruct what are often presented as very abstract ideas in other texts while at the same time not oversimplifying the ideas. Its emphasis on computational examples and special cases (e.g., the implicit function theorem) makes for a much more natural transition for students who are used to thinking about analysis in computational terms from elementary calculus and differential equations, linear algebra, into the realms of advanced modern analysis. I’ve never seen a text that does this as well as Buck.” — Steven Deckelman, University of Wisconsin, Stout

“A classic.” — Li Guo, Rutgers University

“Like the earlier editions, the book is well written and nicely organized. Students find it to be readable, which is not the case with many mathematics texts.” — Thomas J. Smith, Manhattan College

“First and foremost, I commend you for providing a classic book at a reasonable student price!” — Paul Loya, Binghamton University

“A very high-quality text. Excellent explanations, good examples, and the problem sets are at the correct level of challenge. I’ve used earlier editions several times for a full-year course, much to the beneficial development of the students.” — Daniel D. Bonar, Denison University

“The excellent examples help students get to the heart of mathematical concepts for better understanding of real analysis.” — Rahim G. Karimpour, Southern Illinois University

“Buck’s book is a classic and is appropriate for our advanced calculus course. It is an excellent treatment!” — J. David Logan, University of Nebraska

“A classic introduction to a difficult subject. The new edition reads better than the previous editions’ already-good presentations.” — Javier Trigos, California State University, Bakersfield
