For most students, in addition to learning new material about real numbers, topology, and sequences, they are also learning to read and write rigorous proofs for the first time. \u003ci\u003eThe Real Analysis Lifesaver\u003c\/i\u003e is an innovative guide that helps students through their first real analysis course while giving them the solid foundation they need for further study in proof-based math. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eRather than presenting polished proofs with no explanation of how they were devised, \u003ci\u003eThe Real Analysis Lifesaver\u003c\/i\u003e takes a two-step approach, first showing students how to work backwards to solve the crux of the problem, then showing them how to write it up formally. It takes the time to provide plenty of examples as well as guided \"fill in the blanks\" exercises to solidify understanding. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eNewcomers to real analysis can feel like they are drowning in new symbols, concepts, and an entirely new way of thinking about math. Inspired by the popular \u003ci\u003eCalculus Lifesaver\u003c\/i\u003e, this book is refreshingly straightforward and full of clear explanations, pictures, and humor.
