Summary
Author J. B. Roberts stresses self-reliance in this approach, and readers will find that many of the exercises are inseparable from the text and must be completed before moving forward. No proofs are given in the first part of the final chapter, where students are encouraged to use the definitions and theorems to develop the set of all real numbers from the set of nonnegative real numbers. Helpful appendixes introduce cardinal and complex numbers. Suitable as a supplement for any undergraduate course in real numbers, this book is especially valuable for courses in the teaching of mathematics.
