Nonstandard analysis represents a fundamental change of perspective in mathematics (and sciences), comparable to the introduction of Cantor's set theory in the nineteenth century. This book is a short, readable introduction to the subject, based on the axiomatic or IST approach. The first part gives

Infinitesimals have been hotly debated since the invention of calculus 300 years ago. This accessible treatment of nonstandard analysis (NSA) presents an elementary, yet rigorous account of the theory of infinitesimals and derives some known mathematical results in a nonclassical way.

This book introduces Robinson's nonstandard analysis, an application of model theory in analysis. Unlike some texts, it does not attempt to teach elementary calculus on the basis of nonstandard analysis, but points to some applications in more advanced analysis. The contents proceed from a discussio
