A strange review for Baby Rudin (古怪的書評)

http://www.amazon.com/review/R23MC2PCAJYHCB/ref=cm_cr_rdp_perm

It is not quite a review of Principles of Mathematical Analysis (nicknamed Baby Rudin) -- a classic undergraduate textbook written by Walter Rudin. The reviewer takes the chance to criticize the tend of university courses getting easier and the lack of self-motivation of undergraduates to face challenging materials .

"And if you'r a student and find the book too hard? Try harder. That's the point. If you did not crave intellectual work why are you sitting in an analysis course? Dig in."

這根本不是Walter Rudin著名大學課本 Principles of Mathematical Analysis (俗稱 Baby Rudin) 的書評。 書評人是趁機批評大學課程變淺, 又批評當代大學生逃避面對艱深的學術知識。

"如果你是學生覺得這本書難? 再努力點! 若不是想鑽研學術, 念數學分析這門課幹麼!"
