Essential Calculus: Early Transcendentals
Customer Reviews — [1] Rating: 5 Date: 2010-08-28 Summary: i'm keeping this one ... my first calc book was the Ron Larson book (ca 1999), and it's a bit more descriptive in examples here and there, but otherwise there's little difference in the approaches to teaching the material. some of the sections do choose terribly simple examples, but this is basically a condensed text. i got a lot of good knowledge from this book and now that i think about it, i'd rather use this one. hey, at least it's less weight to carry around (paperback intl edition ftw) if you'd asked me in the middle of chapter 13, i ...more

The Calculus Diaries: How Math Can Help You Lose Weight, Win in Vegas, and Survive a Zombie Apocalypse
Customer Reviews — [1] Rating: 4 Date: 2010-08-29 Summary: Calculus for poets: a clear and simple guide to the world of calculus ... The Calculus Diaries, by Jennifer Oullette, is kind of a `physics for poets' take on higher mathematics. Rather than confuse her math-phobic readers with tortuous equations and cryptic mathematical symbols, Oulette tries to help us understand the germ of the mathematical idea. She outlines the basic concepts and explains how calculus might be as elegant as a sonnet or jaunty villanelle. As ridiculous as this may sound, Oulette can really pull this off. After reading this book you may not become a mathematical genius ...more
[2] Rating: 5 Date: 2010-08-25 Summary: It did something unbelievable.. ... This book caused my fourteen year old daughter to ask me to buy her some math books. She ASKED for math books. My first thought was that she had a table leg that needed propping up, but no, she wanted to read them, thanks to this book. I think the zombies and the reference to "losing weight" in the title sucked her in, but the writing kept her there. I'm ordering her a stack of books on calculus, physics, and trigonometry, at her request, this Friday. It doesn't work on everyone, my other daughter said "Mommy, promise ...more
[3] Rating: 4 Date: 2010-08-19 Summary: "Who'da" thought it calculus could be fun? ... I know, it sounds like a contradiction to say that a book about calculus is a fun read but this book really is. I don't know if I would go so far as to say that it's a book about calculus for non-mathematicians because some of the sections can be a bit challenging, but this isn't a text book and you're not required to memorize everything so it's reasonable to skip over or come back later to difficult sections. I'm not a mathematician but I could understand most of the theory discussed in this book and I enjoyed how ...more
[4] Rating: 4 Date: 2010-08-19 Summary: A book for trivia lovers. ... I was looking for a book that would inspire reluctant math students to be encouraged to give more of an effort to higher-level math. What I found was a book filled with a large amount of trivia. I found all of the history lessons to be quite interesting, but the book didn't do what I had thought it would. I taught math for over 20 years and it didn't inspire me! It has been over 40 years since I took calculus and it is true that if you don't use it, you lose it. Having a pretty good foundation in math, I thought I ...more
Editorial Reviews — ... Product Description | Kiss My Math meets A Tour of the Calculus Jennifer Ouellette never took math in college, mostly because she-like most people-assumed that she wouldn't need it in real life. But then the English-major-turned-award-winning-science-writer had a change of heart and decided to revisit the equations and formulas that had haunted her for years. The Calculus Diaries is the fun and fascinating account of her year spent confronting her math phobia head on. With wit and verve, Ouellette shows how...more

Editorial Reviews — ... Product Description | Calculus teachers recognize Calculus as the leading resource among the "reform" projects that employ the rule of four and streamline the curriculum in order to deepen conceptual understanding. The fifth edition uses all strands of the "Rule of Four" - graphical, numeric, symbolic/algebraic, and verbal/applied presentations - to make concepts easier to understand. The book focuses on exploring fundamental ideas rather than comprehensive coverage of multiple similar cases that are not fundamentally...more
