Lebesgue’s Theory of Integration: Its Origins and Development (AMS Chelsea Publishing Series) 2nd Edition by Thomas Hawkins (PDF)

Description

In this book, Hawkins elegantly places Lebesgue’s early work on integration theory within in proper historical context by relating it to the developments during the nineteenth century that motivated it and gave it significance and also to the contributions made in this field by Lebesgue’s contemporaries. Hawkins was awarded the 1997 MAA Chauvenet Prize and the 2001 AMS Albert Leon Whiteman Memorial Prize for notable exposition and exceptional scholarship in the history of mathematics.

Editorial Reviews: Review A clear exposition … — NatureHawkins has written an excellent book, of value both to mathematicians and historians of science … Any teacher of advanced calculus will find the material in this book invaluable in motivating the introduction of Lebesgue’s theory. — IsisThe success of the book will be ensured because it is a genuinely historical study. — British Journal of the History of Science

Reviews from Amazon users which were colected at the time this book was published on the website:

⭐It is one of most important books about the history of Lebesgue Measure and integration.

⭐First off, I haven’t purchased or read this text, but a thirty-five dollar textbook that introduces ONLY the lebesgue integral, and almost certainly only on the real number line, is not a good investment. You would do much better to stick with the classic, Walter Rudin’s “Principles of Mathematical Analysis,” where the Lebesgue integral is introduced in a logical manner and in a way that encourages further education.Rudin has frequently been criticized for being “too dry,” but a patient and dedicated student will be capable of steady progress, and as the student is forced for him/herself to decide the worth of the theorems presented, they gain a taste of what theorems really are important (a definite must for any mathematics students contemplating graduate school).Used copies of Rudin abound, so there is no excuse for purchasing anything but the best.
