Variational Analysis: Critical Extremals and Sturmian ExtensionsVariational Analysis: Critical Extremals and Sturmian Extensions 
by Marston Morse
This text presents extended separation, comparison, and oscillation theorems that replace classical analysis. Its analysis of related quadratic functionals shows how critical extremals can substitute for minimizing extremals. 1973 edition.

Approximation of Elliptic Boundary-Value ProblemsApproximation of Elliptic Boundary-Value Problems 
by Jean-Pierre Aubin
A marriage of the finite-differences method with variational methods for solving boundary-value problems, this self-contained text for advanced undergraduates and graduate students is intended to imbed this combination of methods into the framework of functional analysis.
