This book helps unfold so many misters where the mind has difficulties in producing examples that are not intuitive.What this book taught me later in my professional life: put a lot of effort to break things that are important: methods, software (yes! software), solution paths etc. For example, in software it is important to spend resources to break a code - we can see very well the merits, but it is hard to look under the hood.

Genius.

What a fantastic idea for a book. Every math undergrad needs this. Should be required.

Awesome book!

Ok this is among the best books in real analysis you can find around. The counterexamples are a big help in understanding the real thing, the explanations are crystal clear and, above all, this book is dirty cheap! It's difficult to find a better book for even a heftier sum, this book is a must have for anyone interested in real analysis!

Minor Issue, but Invaluable

I bought this to get help with limits of step functions. I've primarily looked at Example 24 of Chapter 2.Given the need to consider many examples, one can't quibble with a terse presentation. However, in the given example, it's difficult to see how the sequence converging to g_n(x) can be chosen to be "decreasing", as opposed to "non-increasing."Overall it's a great book and came to me in great condition!

You can't understand something without counterexamples.

Like the authors warned, I would've liked it if there were some counterexamples I thought of put in the book, but I realize this is technically infeasible.Really, this book acts as a handy reference. "Oh, is this true? (look for counterexample) Maybe it is/No it's not." It helps quicken the learning experience quite a bit. The fact that it's only around $10 also makes it handier.

Helps real analysis exam using baby Rudin in undergrad

One might question the taste of such a book but helpful in conjunction with baby Rudin to prepare for real analysis test in college on the first exposure.

I think it is a very useful resource for mathematics teachers and students

Read this book as a graduate student. I think it is a very useful resource for mathematics teachers and students. Glad that they reprinted it.

Very useful for students

Very useful for students. I like to flip through it, and sometimes my professor mentioned examples/counterexamples that were in this book. I noticed he had one in his office.
