I had never taken a course in analysis. That was a gap in my education I needed to remedy. I therefore worked my way carefully through Stephen Abbott's Understanding Analysis. This worked. In fall 2015 I took my first actual analysis course -- Functional Analysis, a postgraduate course. I don't remember my exact grade, but it was in the 90s.
Stephen D. Abbott is Professor of Mathematics at Middlebury College. He is a two-time winner of Middlebury’s Perkins Award for Excellence in Teaching (1998, 2010). His published work includes articles in the areas of operator theory and functional analysis, the algorithmic foundations of robotics, and the intersection of science, mathematics ...
Understanding Analysis is so well-written and the development of the theory so well-motivated that exposing students to it could well lead them to expect such excellence in all their textbooks. ... Abbott takes the opposite approach and has produced an absolute gem of book. I hope he has ushered in a new era of mathematics pedagogy.

Conversely, even many many graduate level physics textbooks focus on clarity, pedagogy, and understanding. Why make things harder than they need to be? Abbott takes the opposite approach and has produced an absolute gem of book. I hope he has ushered in a new era of mathematics pedagogy. One can clearly be both rigorous AND pedagogical.

Understanding Analysis outlines an elementary, one-semester course designed to expose students to the rich rewards inherent in taking a mathematically rigorous approach to the study of functions of a real variable. The aim of a course in real analysis should be to challenge and improve mathematical intuition rather than to verify it. The philosophy of this book is to focus attention on the ...
Fifteen years of classroom experience with the first edition of Understanding Analysis have solidified and refined the central narrative of the second edition. Roughly 150 new exercises join a selection of the best exercises fromthe first edition, and three more project-style sections have been added.
One example of this academic excellence is Stephen Abbott’s Understanding Analysis, a textbook that perfectly represents the type of rigorous, clear education Middlebury offers. Abbott’s ability to make complex mathematical ideas feel intuitive is truly remarkable. He doesn’t just present formulas; he guides readers through the logic ...
Understanding Analysis aims to present a mathematically rigorous approach to the study of functions of a real variable in a one-semester course. The book emphasizes the importance of developing mathematical intuition through challenging topics, rather than merely verifying familiar calculus theorems. ...
