Synopsis
Excerpt from An Introduction to the Differential Calculus by Means of Finite Differences
Professor Newcomb says in the Preface to his Algebra that all mathematical conceptions require time to become engrafted upon the mind, and the more time, the more their abstruseness. And again in the same work, one well known principle underly ing the acquisition of all knowledge is that an idea cannot be fully grasped by the youthful mind, unless it is presented in some concrete form. Whenever possible an abstract idea must be em bodied in some visible representation.

Print on DemandSeller: Forgotten Books, London, United Kingdom
Seller rating 5 out of 5 stars
Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book offers a comprehensive introduction to differential calculus through finite differences. Introducing a method pioneered by the author, this book re-examines a fundamental concept in calculus that has been taught for more than two centuries. The author argues that earlier methods of explaining differential calculus fail to provide students with a full conceptual model. The book shows how finite differences offer a more robust method for understanding differential calculus, allowing students to visualize the relationship between differentials and differences and grasp the fundamental principles of the subject. It includes historical context and analysis of the traditional method of limits. The book concludes by discussing the significance of the author's method in providing a more rigorous and intuitive approach to differential calculus. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. Seller Inventory # 9781330581315_0
