For example, "Measure, Integration & Real Analysis" by Axler [0] is a beauty to behold. Honestly, no books from as recent as aughts match the pics, the font, the color of this book...even the explanations and examples le
on “Free and Open-Source Mathematics Textbooks” ↗…probably do the following one after the other: For pre-analysis, try * From Calculus to Analysis by Schinazi: https://www.google.com/books/edition/From_Calculus_to_Analys... For modern analysis, try * Measure, Integration and Real Analysis by Axler: https://link.springer.com/content/pdf/10.1007%2F978-3-030-33... The one by Schinazi is on l#ibgen and the one by Axler is available free.

It's "fun" to see Axler present measure theory first and foremost, but analysis is typically a prerequisite to that. The more pedagogically appropriate way…
