Calculus Advanced Calculus with Applications in Statistics

Click For 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.
 
Many years ago, as the internet was coming of age, I burned over 500 pounds of technical manuals. I realized I can look things up on the internet faster than I can find something in a technical manual. And just about anything I might need could be found online. But letting go of my several shelves worth of college text and other science books is another matter. I can't bring myself to get rid of them but there is very little if anything I can't find online now. Books are heavy and a pain...
