Foundations of Modern Analysis is a terrifically compact book which covers a breadth of content not obvious from its size. As it informs the reader in its preface, the book is intended for an introductory graduate course in modern analysis (read measure and integration theory plus functional analysis). While the book does not disappoint in its spread of topics, the treatment leaves much to be desired for a student unless the book is used to supplement a more explanatory text. The reader frequently encounters the proof by recall approach, where a theorem or proposition is justified almost entirely by way of pointing the reader to previous pages, e.g. the result follows by applying property (iv) of Theorem 2.4 to equation (5). This makes proofs short, but it is not very illuminating, and makes for difficult self-study. Exercises are offered subsequent to each section, and many of these are very good, thought-promoting problems, several with short hints. An instructor can make great use of these as alternative questions while teaching from another book. However, even these are painstakingly briefly posed, with regular calls to definitions by number and lists by criterion given pages ago. All in all, the book is a worthwhile reference, and can be effective when taken in combination with a more verbose text, particularly for the purpose of introduction to the subject matter.
