โฆ Synopsis
This book on the basics of Calculus introduces the main concept of the derivative through a short fairy tale and then gets into the calculations. It helps build the conceptual understanding first, and then gets into the details of problem solving.ย
This book is a great study supplement to a high school Calculus or the first college Calculus course. It includes lots of practice problems with answers and worked examples.
