Free calculus : a liberation from concepts and proofs /

Conventional calculus is too hard and too complex. Students are forced to learn too many theorems and proofs. In Free Calculus, the author suggests a direct approach to the two fundamental concepts of calculus - differentiation and integration - using two inequalities. Regular calculus is condensed...

520 |a Conventional calculus is too hard and too complex. Students are forced to learn too many theorems and proofs. In Free Calculus, the author suggests a direct approach to the two fundamental concepts of calculus - differentiation and integration - using two inequalities. Regular calculus is condensed into a single concise chapter. This makes the teaching of physics in step with the calculus teaching
