best calculus book for self study pdf

      some fifty years ago an excellent  little book  was published bearing the title ,"the calculus made Easy "the author adopted as his motto , "what one fool can do another can , "intending thereby  to encourage a diffident student . As  the author however disclosed the fact that he was a "fellow of the Royal Society " it is doubtful whether the words would bring much comfort to those who were proposing to study the the subject .

     in those days the calculus  was  looked upon by many as abstruse and lying beyond the boundaries of elementary mathematics . but the increasing  use of the subject in engineering and science, and consequently the desirability of bringing such a powerful mathematical instrument  within the reach of a wider  circle of student , led to the gradual simplification of its presentation . 

   the present volume is in the line of this development . it aims at making it easier for the private student , who is unable to obtain the guidance and help of  a teacher , to acquire  a working knowledge of the calculus . like other books in the series ,it attempts  within the inevitable  limitations of space, to provide something of the presentation and illustrations employed by a teacher of  the subject ,especially in the earlier stages when the student  is trying to discover what it is all about.
