Synopsis
This clearly written, well-illustrated text makes calculus understandable even for the rank beginner. It is geared toward undergraduate business and social science students rather than math majors; the only background necessary is high-school level algebra and a little familiarity with analytic geometry. Topics include sets, functions, and graphs; limits and continuity; special functions; the derivative and its uses; the definite integral and further methods and applications of integration; and the functions of several variables. User-friendly features include reviews at the end of each chapter and exercises on different levels; answers to more than half of the problems appear in the appendix. 1972 edition.
