Customer Reviews — [1] Rating: 5 Date: 2010-01-10 Summary: Great refresher for professionals and good supplement for students.. ... I had studied calculus a decade back and haven't used much on day-to-day job. I bought this book to refresh myself and I am glad I chose this particular book. It's very simple and clear. I had done lot of calculus problems and understood the mathematical aspect of it. What I did not understand was basic fundamentals explaining why calculus works and what exactly it does in plain english. I like the way the author has put together the subject. I read this book from beginning to ending and found it very helpful. If you ...more
[2] Rating: 5 Date: 2009-10-09 Summary: Calculus for Dummies ... Great review and explaination of math. The book does not have many examples to check your understanding. Therefore, I would recommend purchasing the matching workbook if you are using the book for self-study. ...more
[3] Rating: 5 Date: 2009-09-13 Summary: Fantastic overview before taking my College Calculus class!! ... Dear Mr. Ryan, I picked up "Calculus for Dummies" this morning in preparation for an upcoming college calculus class and I'm THOROUGHLY enjoying it! I am literally laughing out loud - thank you for making math fun. I really enjoy how you connect with your reader. Signed, Laughing in Farmington, MN p.s. My favorite quote so far... "Subtracting fractions works like adding fractions except that instead of adding, you subtract. Insights like this are the reason they pay me the big bucks." ...more
[4] Rating: 5 Date: 2009-07-31 Summary: Drop every other calculus book and get this one. ... The Author, Mark Ryan, bush wacks all the clutter away. This is by far the best Calculus book I've owned and I own a few. He gets right into the concepts in a easy to understand way and breaks all the ideas down into ways you can relate to (no calculus pun intended). There are no long draw out cryptic proofs filled with a gazillion veriables and symbols and hard to understand einsteinian math-lingo. There is just an easy to understand method of learning calculus. If you are learning limits, differentiation, integrals, ...more
Editorial Reviews — ... Product Description | The mere thought of having to take a required calculus course is enough to make legions of students break out in a cold sweat. Others who have no intention of ever studying the subject have this notion that calculus is impossibly difficult unless you happen to be a direct descendant of Einstein. Well, the good news is that you can master calculus. It's not nearly as tough as its mystique would lead you to think. Much of calculus is really just very advanced algebra, geometry, and trig....more

Customer Reviews — [1] Rating: 5 Date: 2010-02-22 Summary: Strongly Recommend ... I strongly recommend this book to anyone who is taking Calculus.

[2] Rating: 5 Date: 2009-12-06 Summary: Great Reference when Studying Calculus ... I bought this book because I couldn't follow while I was reading the textbook and had a hard time following my math teacher at college. So I decided to buy another book for reference, and make it easier for me to understand these concepts, and try them out. I liked how he approached each problem from easy to difficult degree of problems. This book explains it very clearly and what other steps we can approach solving the problem. It also gives you tips, formulas and graphs to memorize too. Awesome content and this book ...more
[3] Rating: 5 Date: 2009-11-25 Summary: Helpful for review ... After a year long absence between my calculus 1 and calculus 2 classes it was suggested to pick up this book for review. this book is not only giving me a thorough review, but keeps my attention. Overall I think the best part of the book is how when working through the problems the method used and the steps taken to complete the problems differ. Unlike a traditional mat book where a set way is presented and the student then applies the formula 25 times in a row before moving on. ...more
Editorial Reviews — ... Product Description | Now students have nothing to fear … Math textbooks can be as baffling as the subject they’re teaching. Not anymore. The best-selling author of The Complete Idiot’s Guide to Calculus has taken what appears to be a typical calculus workbook, chock full of solved calculus problems, and made legible notes in the margins, adding missing steps and simplifying solutions. Finally, everything is made perfectly clear. Students will be prepared to solve those obscure problems that were never...more

[2] Rating: 4 Date: 2009-11-15 Summary: Better than expected ... If your teacher doesn't make the ride easy for you, then you can count on this book. It's organized so that you really feel as though you are learning Calculus from start to finish. I've looked at other books that seem to jump around from concept to concept, but the approach here is well thought out and the explanations adequate. Formatting (color of text, organization of topics, etc.) makes it easy to find what you're looking for if a section refers you back to a previously studied concept (or forward in some cases) ...more

[4] Rating: 5 Date: 2009-12-07 Summary: It is a great book to learn from! ... Ok, it had been three years since I had taken Calc. I and II.

Then, I ordered this book for Calc III and I started using that. I was able to teach myself the stuff of Calc I and II and I rocked Calc III. ...more

[2] Rating: 5 Date: 2009-08-19 Summary: You need this book! ... If, and only if, you are capable of explaining technical things in non-technical terms, can it be said you truly understand them. Mark Zegarelli truly understands Calculus, and because he does, so will you upon working through his book. Too often, writers of mathematics books seem more interested in impressing their readers than teaching them. Many times, I have come away from such a book declaring, "The writer sure seems to know what he's talking about. I only wish I did." This cannot be said of Calculus II. Mark ...more
[3] Rating: 5 Date: 2009-07-20 Summary: excellent resource for college calculus ... really excellent book. i use it as a supplement to lecture, and most of the time is it clearer that both my lecture and textbook. highly recommend it to anyone who wants a no non-sense approach to calculus II material and actually understand what's going on. ...more
