Not going obsolete doesn't mean not improvable. Seems a reasonable question.

Assuming it’s Carr’s, IIRC it’s a rather odd style of work, it’s a summary of the state of basic mathematics rather than a textbook per se, with pages of theorems with little explanation.

So a modern version would at most be a different idea of what the core theorems should be.
