One of the finest expositors in the field of modern mathematics, Dr. Konrad Knopp here concentrates on a topic that is of particular interest to 20th-century mathematicians and students. He develops the theory of infinite sequences and series from its beginnings to a point where the reader will be i

Careful presentation of fundamentals of the theory by one of the finest modern expositors of higher mathematics. Covers functions of real and complex variables, arbitrary and null sequences, convergence and divergence, Cauchy's limit theorem, more.
Learning infinite sequences from this book is not recommended for beginners like me. I suggest reading Calculus by John Stewart where evaluation of limits is demonstrated. Stewart proceeds along with different types of tests compared to this book. This one is more "formula oriented" Regards, Yasir
