Review text

The author gives a brief elementary proof of Brouwer's fixed point theorem which is based only on the inverse function theorem, the Weierstraß approximation theorem, and the transformation formula for the Lebesgue integral. The author cites a similar proof due to \textit{C. A. Rogers} [Am. Math. Monthly 87, 525-527 (1980; Zbl 0447.57020)], but seems to be unaware of yet another proof of \textit{K. Gröger} [Math. Nachr. 102, 293-295 (1981; Zbl 0484.47032)].
