About the Book
|
This textbook is written for everyone who has experienced difficulties understanding Calculus. This book really teaches you, helps you understand and master Calculus through clear and meaningful explanations of all the ideas, concepts, problems and procedures of Calculus; effective problem solving skills and strategies; fully worked problems with complete, step-by-step explanations. The material in this textbook is prepared and sequenced in a particular way to allow for an easy, logical progression from the simple to the more elaborate concepts and exercises. By carefully reading all material, working through all examples and solving all problems, the student will easily master the fundamentals of Calculus in one semester.
One serious difficulty in learning Calculus today is a lack of simple and clear textbooks. There are dozens of huge, expensive textbooks that are so needlessly complicated as to be practically incomprehensible. It seems that every author of a Calculus textbook believes that every student is a born mathematician that wants to become a math professor. They forget that a mark of a good teacher is an ability to make complicated things seem easy and simple. A good textbook must explain and teach its subject matter, helping the student to learn and say: “That’s all? That’s easy!”.
The effectiveness of this textbook was tested and improved in one of the most challenging (and rewarding) teaching environments - the inner city schools of New York.
The purpose of this book is to enable any student to master the fundamentals of Calculus in one semester - four months. The only requirement is an honest desire to learn.
The material in this textbook is prepared and sequenced in a particular way to allow for an easy, logical progression from the simple to the more elaborate concepts and exercises.
