Synopsis

Clear, practical intro to calculus and its tools for beginners.

This classic text is designed as an approachable entry into calculus, with side topics in algebra, geometry, and analytic methods. It emphasizes understanding and practical applications, offering flexibility for instructors to tailor the course. Rigor is kept to a reasonable level, with many proofs presented as exercises and room for teacher discretion in selecting topics.


The course structure supports both a full four-term sequence and condensed timelines, making it adaptable for different classroom schedules. The material covers fundamentals from algebra and graphs to derivatives, series, and integration, with guidance on problem solving and interpretation of results.



  • Practical explanations of key concepts in limits, derivatives, and integrals

  • Worked examples and a flexible approach for different teaching styles

  • Progressions from basic operations to more advanced topics like series and numerical methods

  • Notes on selecting exercises and exploring applications without overloading the learner


Ideal for readers beginning their study of calculus or seeking a solid foundation in the methods and applications of mathematical analysis.

Présentation de l'éditeur

A sy Wsg PREFACE The present course is the result of several years of study and trial in the classroom in an effort to make an introduction to college mathematics more effective, rational and better suited to its place in a scheme of education under modern conditions of life. A broader field has been attempted than is customary in books of its class. This is made possible by certain principles which controlled the construction of the text. One principle on which the course is built is correlation by topics. For example, all methods of calculation have been associated in one chapter and early in the course in order to beavailable for use in the sequel. The function idea has also been emphasized and used as a means of correlation. Brevity and directness of treatment have contributed to reduce the size of the book. An effort has been made to keep in view of the student the steps in the development of the subject and to point out useful contacts of mathematics with affairs. The first two chapters are intended to be used for review and reference at the discretion of the instructor. Graphic representation and its uses have been given considerable attention. The simple cases of determining empirical formulae give a very valuable drill in the solution of simultaneous equations and a foundation for later work in the laboratory. The treatment of the trigonometric functions is brief, direct and in some respects more advanced in style than is customary in current texts in trigonometry which are constructed mostly from the secondary school standpoint.
