Calculus Made Easy 1st Edition Summary: Calculus Made Easy: being a very-simplest introduction to those beautiful methods of reckoning which are generally called by the terrifying names of the differential calculus and the integral calculus.Calculus Made Easy was originally published more than 100 years ago, in 1910, and today is still one of the most useful resources to learn calculus. Silvanus P. Thompson truly does make calculus "easy." It takes all of the fear, frustration and difficulty out of learning calculus, and replaces them with levity, curiosity, and delight.The book contains a concise exposition of elementary calculus and a very simple introduction to differential and integral calculus. In writing this text, Silvanus P. Thompson shows us how complex concepts can be explained in a clear and simple language. The book is full of useful information and clear explanations, this text is ideal for students and anyone with a desire to advance their mathematical knowledge.Thompson's writing style is both light-hearted and insightful. He begins the book by explaining the terminology and notation used in calculus, albeit in a humorous way. He riffs on the so-called "math experts" of his time who took the most complicated approach to explaining calculus. With this brief satire he draws you in deeper and deeper into this elegant topic.---Table of ContentsI. To deliver you from the Preliminary TerrorsII. On Different Degrees of SmallnessIII.
