 An excellent introduction and review of Calculus ...... July 9, 2001

I trudge back to this book again and again, being embarassed at having forgotten some basic idea or technique. This is an excellent supplemental text to a formal Calculus textbook like "Calculus " by Stewart. The writing is lucid and ideas are explained with the novice in mind. I find that reading this book first BEFORE getting into a meatier textbook helps me understand the material. My experience has been that if I do not "do calculus" at least twice a week I forget the techniques (not ideas) almost immediately. Therefore, if you want a review of Calculus this book is a great tool. If you are new to calculus this book will help you understand important concepts like differentiation vs integration. I also found that reading pertinent chapters in Selby's "Geometry and Trigonometry For Calculus" and then reading related material in this book is a tremendous help. Another strong point is that for us over 50 the font size and book layout is easy on the eye. So whether you are a novice or someone who has not had the chance to use Calculus in a while; or someone "brand new" to Calculus, get this book. An excellent resource for learning and entertainment!!
Great supplement to your average math course March 15, 2008

I use this book in a calculus class I teach on America Online. For the price, it is an excellent review of the subject. It covers the same material found in much more expensive texts. There are many exercises for students to do, with answers in the back of the book. It only lacks the full-color graphics that adorn conventional calculus textbooks.I would recommend this book to anyone wishing to learn calculus by self-study. It is also a good supplement to a conventional text used in a class. The best way to learn math is by doing problems, and this book has plenty, including many detailed solutions.
Very good value for the budget-minded math student May 25, 2000

Elliott Mendelson does an excellent job of presenting basic calculus concepts in an inexpensive book. His explanations are very clear, and the book is actually fun to use. Perhaps my only criticism is that this book does not use color which often helps to clarify figures of graphs, but black and white figures are to be expected in an outline. If you're interested in a supplement to your text or if you want a book for self-study, I strongly recommend "Beginning Calculus."
