Calculus in Focus

Written by a professional physicist, Calculus in Focus teaches you everything you need to know about first semester calculus. Topics covered include computation of limits and derivatives, continuity, one-sided limits, finding maxima and minima, related rates problems, implicit differentiation, integration and more. Each chapter is packed with sample problems that guide the reader through the procedures used to solve calculus problems. End of chapter exercises, based on the solved problems in the text, help the reader master the three main ideas of calculus-limit, derivative, and integral-while building confidence and preparing the reader for further study.
