Excerpts from the Book:

David Guichard wrote:

This is a freely available (Creative Commons licensed) calculus book, covering a fairly standard course sequence: single variable calculus, infinite series, and multivariable calculus. There is no chapter on differential equations.

David Guichard wrote:

The emphasis in this course is on problems -- doing calculations and story problems. To master problem solving one needs a tremendous amount of practice doing problems. The more problems you do the better you will be at doing them, as patterns will start to emerge in both the problems and in successful approaches to them. You will learn fastest and best if you devote some time to doing problems every day.
