Designed for undergraduate mathematics majors, this rigorous and rewarding treatment covers the usual topics of first-year calculus: limits, derivatives, integrals, and infinite series. Author Daniel J. Velleman focuses on calculus as a tool for problem solving rather than the subject's theoretical foundations. Stressing a fundamental understanding of the concepts of calculus instead of memorized procedures, this volume teaches problem solving by reasoning, not just calculation. The goal of the text is an understanding of calculus that is deep enough to allow the student to not only find answers to problems, but also achieve certainty of the answers' correctness.No background in calculus is necessary. Prerequisites include proficiency in basic algebra and trigonometry, and a concise review of both areas provides sufficient background. Extensive problem material appears throughout the text and includes selected answers. Complete solutions are available to instructors.

Great Read for 11 Year Old

My 11 year old couldn't put this one down and was a bit sad when it ended. We've already ordered another one in the series.

The book series that got my son into reading
Format: Hardcover
Very thankful we found this author and these books. This is the first series my son struggles to put down and the mandatory 20 minute reading time with lots of nagging has turned into gentle nudges that he has to stop reading at the next chapter because it is getting late.
