| Aug 11, 2010 at 11:10 | comment | added | Mark | Agreed. One of the things I really like about Jones' book is that many exercises are given right after the definitions and the theorems (rather than at the end of the chapter), which allows you to grasp the concepts taught just after they've been presented. I really don't understand why many books in mathematics prefer the "long list of exercises at the end of the chapter" approach. All in all, it's a great introduction to measure theory. For the more advanced stuff (generalities on Radon measures, $L^p$ spaces, etc.), I recommend Folland's book, as was mentioned here already. | |
