A shorter, introductory text with depth and rigor (but never intimidating). It should be on the reading list of all intro analysis course for social science. Practice questions are somehow fewer in this text (like 15 a chapter) but it covers a range of variety (and difficulty) seldom seen in this kind of textbooks.
