Abbott writes with an awareness of the shock students often feel when transitioning from computational calculus to proof-based mathematics. He introduces each chapter with a compelling discussion of a historical or logical paradox (like Zeno’s paradoxes or the bizarre nature of the Cantor set) to motivate the need for strict definitions. Focus on Visual and Intuitive Proofs
If your university has a SpringerLink subscription, you can often order a heavily discounted softcover print version directly through the portal.
While easy to find, an illicit (scanned from a library copy) often has major drawbacks:
