5.0 out of 5 stars Clear, simple theory
This book explains the theory of differential and some integral calculus. There are worked problems, but I mostly ignored them in favor of the raw concept discussion.

I read the book in the summer before my university Calc I class, and it seemed to make everything fit together much more quickly for me than most other students in the class. The book may not be as...

3.0 out of 5 stars Boring
This book won't make you want to learn calculus because it's more boring than most textbooks. Extra explanations of concepts are always helpful, but you get explanations with every calculus book, so don't think that this book is something special.

This book explains the theory of differential and some integral calculus. There are worked problems, but I mostly ignored them in favor of the raw concept discussion.

I read the book in the summer before my university Calc I class, and it seemed to make everything fit together much more quickly for me than most other students in the class. The book may not be as valuable as others for review, however.

Highly recommended reading before you start a calculus adventure. One of the clearest explanations of calculus theory that I've ever seen. A few hours a week with this book in the summer will save you months of frustration during a hectic semester.

5.0 out of 5 stars A great book, February 19, 2009
This review is from: Schaum's Outline of Understanding Calculus Concepts (Paperback)
This is a wonderful book. I enjoyed reading it even though I have learned calculus more than a decade ago. I just regret that I did not read it during my college time. Absolutely helpful for those who are studying and will study calculus.

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Schaum's Outline of Understanding Calculus Concepts (Paperback)
Item was sent as described and is a most useful overview of the ideas, good for someone getting back into such a topic after many years away from it.

3.0 out of 5 stars Nice for what it has, but a little light on content, October 18, 2009
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Schaum's Outline of Understanding Calculus Concepts (Paperback)
For what it includes, this book is pretty good. Unfortunately, it misses more than it contains, so it's more a summary than a real reference.
