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.
