Synopsis:
This non-rigorous, yet accurate presentation of the applications of calculus to technologies is exceptionally student-oriented. The presentation is clear and concise, the examples are worked in great detail (enhanced by marginal annotations), and step-by-step procedures are used whenever possible. While the approach is accessible and intuitive, the author has retained the TTspiritTT of the calculus by use of historical notes, interesting asides, and informal motivations.
About the Author: Peter Kuhfittig has taught mathematics at the Milwaukee School of Engineering for over thirty years and has served as head of the department for over half of this period. His enthusiasm for teaching has resulted in an award for excellence in teaching, as well as an interest in textbook writing. He has been involved in applications of mathematics through occasional consulting work. More recently, Dr. Kuhfittig has turned to research in wormhole physics.
