Calculus Advanced Calculus with Applications in Statistics

AI Thread Summary
The discussion centers on a book by Andre I. Khuri, a professor emeritus at the University of Florida, which covers calculus and multivariable calculus in a rigorous manner. The preface suggests it could serve as an introduction to mathematical analysis. There is curiosity about the book's effectiveness, particularly its applications in statistics. While some participants are unfamiliar with Khuri's book, a recommendation is made for a classic and clearer alternative, "Advanced Calculus" by Buck, which is also noted to be more affordable.

Is someone has already heard about this book wrote by Andre I. Khuri (Professor emeritus in science at university of Florida) ?

By the table of contents the book seems to cover a lot of things in calculus/multivariable calculus and in a rigourous way according to the preface (they argue that the book could serve to an introduction class in mathematical analysis). The applications in statistics may be good but I don't know a lot on that and I was wondering if one has already read this book and learn well from this latter.

Here is a link to the table of contents : https://www.amazon.com/dp/0471391042/?tag=pfamazon01-20

Thank you a lot

No. Not familiar with that book. But a classic, and clear book, is the one written by Buck : Advance Calculus. Much cheaper too.
 
The book is fascinating. If your education includes a typical math degree curriculum, with Lebesgue integration, functional analysis, etc, it teaches QFT with only a passing acquaintance of ordinary QM you would get at HS. However, I would read Lenny Susskind's book on QM first. Purchased a copy straight away, but it will not arrive until the end of December; however, Scribd has a PDF I am now studying. The first part introduces distribution theory (and other related concepts), which...
