D Kleppner
Résumé
In Quick Calculus: A Self-Teaching Guide, 3rd Edition , a team of expert MIT educators delivers a hands-on and practical handbook to essential calculus concepts and terms. The author explores calculus techniques and applications, showing readers how to immediately implement the concepts discussed within to help solve real-world problems.
In the book, readers will find:
- An accessible introduction to the basics of differential and integral calculus
- An interactive self-teaching guide that offers frequent questions and practice problems with solutions.
- A format that enables them to monitor their progress and gauge their knowledge
This latest edition provides new sections, rewritten introductions, and worked examples that demonstrate how to apply calculus concepts to problems in physics, health sciences, engineering, statistics, and other core sciences.
Quick Calculus: A Self-Teaching Guide, 3rd Edition is an invaluable resource for students and lifelong learners hoping to strengthen their foundations in calculus.
