Excellent book on Calculus
Excellent text for explaining calculus basics with very good revision material. Fantastic price and extremely fast delivery from America.Ordered the other volumes (vol 2 and vol of which has 2 books).Written very well and recommended for students on HNC/D and initial degree studies.

Excellent product
Thank you so much for these books. So helpful for my msc course. I haven’t got past the index yet, I’ve only just got them. As I read each one, I will leave a review, it’s only fair, you give them away, it helps me, i will take the time to review each.

I found it to be very informative and well presented particularly for advanced students and those who who wished to specialise

This is the BLACK AND WHITE paperback version
I know, I know - I should have read the description. I knew there were hardback and paperback versions, I knew "the content is identical" and both were colour, and I already had the free download PDF, so when I decided to buy I didn't think I needed to do that - I just found the book, selected "paperback" and placed the order.Finding out that not only did I accidentally order the black-and-white paperback but Amazon UK don't even sell the colour paperback is annoying. The point of wanting the paper books was easier readability than using a tablet screen, but the lack of colour damages readability for me. Not only that, but finding diagrams with descriptions like "The red graph is the constraint function" in a book that has no red, only shades of grey, is pretty annoying even though it's pretty obvious which is the constraint function. That's something I stumbled on early (volume 3, Lagrange Multipliers, page 459 figure 4.60, again page 461 figure 4.61). To be fair, a quick search for more examples didn't find anything.WRT the star rating - I had to give one even though I haven't read that much, and this isn't really new material for me, just a more expansive calculus-specific reference than various engineering/physics mathematics textbooks. That said, I personally find Strangs Linear Algebra books are good, and have no reason to think writing about calculus or having a co-author are bad things. This review is really just a warning that (as, to be fair, the description clearly states) this is the black and white paperback, not the colour one.

A thorough & well written introduction to Calculus. Expensive no, but equal to the best!
I took 3 semesters of Calculus many years ago & spent a lifetime using it. Now, I tutor. I was delighted to find my community college using a book that is well illustrated, and provides clear explanations for most topics common to intro Calculus classes. This is a thorough treatment of concepts & is attractively presented YET is very affordable. Over the years, I have studied many different books and this is about as good as any but at a fraction of the cost.
