About this title

Synopsis

Calculus Made Easy is the answer to anyone who has been baffled, frustrated and simply irritated by the traditional academic approach to applying differentiation and integration problems. First published over a century ago, the methods, "tricks of the trade" and shortcuts Silvanus Thompson reveals are as applicable today in solving real-world 21st century problems. Whether you are a student, an established professional, or simply curious, this easy-to-follow book will give you the confidence to attack even the most daunting problems in engineering, science or mathematics.

From the Publisher

Praise for Martin Gardner's New Edition of Calculus Made Easy:

"Martrin Gardner is one of the greatest intellects produced in this country in this century." --Douglas Hofstadter

"Sylvanus Thompson's Calculus Made Easy is arguably the best math teaching ever. To a non-mathematician, its simplicity and clarity reveals the mathematical genius of Newton, Leibniz, and Thompson himself. Martin Gardner deserves huge thanks for renewing this great book." --Julian Simon, author of Population Matters

"A remarkable and original user-friendly approach to the study of calculus, made even more so by Martin Gardner, the most highly acclaimed mathematical expositor of out time." --R.L. Graham, Chief Scientist, AT&T Labs, and author of Concrete Mathematics

"Before the epsilons and deltas of a college course taught by an eminent mathematician, I learned the elements of calculus from S.P. Thompson's classic work accessible to a new generation of people thirsty for mathematics." --George W. Clark, Massachusetts Institute of Technology

Praise for Martin Gardner

"For more than half a century, Martin Gardner has been the single brightest beacon defending rationality and good science...He is one of the most brilliant men and gracious writers I have known." --Stephen Jay Gould

"Martin Gardner's contribution to contemporary culture is unique." --Noam Chomsky

"Martin Gardner is one of the most versatile men of the century." --Raymond Smullyan
