Synopsis:
Updated and expanded to include the optional use of graphing calculators, this combination textbook and workbook is a good teach-yourself refresher course for men and women who took a calculus course in school, have since forgotten most of what they learned, and now need some practical calculus for business purposes or advanced education. The book is also very useful as a supplementary text for students who are taking calculus and finding it a struggle. Each progressive work unit offers clear instruction and worked-out examples. Special emphasis has been placed on business and economic applications. Topics covered include functions and their graphs, derivatives, optimization problems, exponential and logarithmic functions, integration, and partial derivatives.
From the Back Cover:
This practical text-workbook will help you recapture the calculus that got away. Each work unit offers clear instruction and worked-out examples to help you brush up on the calculus you studied years ago in school but have since forgotten. Author Barbara Lee Bleau offers a teach-yourself refresher text, but the book can also serve as a valuable supplementary workbook and review text for students currently enrolled in a calculus course. Because the material is presented clearly, taking concepts one at a time, this book can also be used as a self-teacher by readers who have never studied calculus.
