Description
Book SynopsisOffers a thorough and mathematically rigorous exposition of single-variable calculus for readers with some previous exposure to calculus techniques but not to methods of proof. This book is appropriate for a beginning Honors Calculus course assuming high school calculus or a “bridge course” using basic analysis to illustrate mathematical rigour.
Trade ReviewThe introduction of a calculus sequence to the high schools has necessitated the development of a course in college math programs to deal with the students that have taken the high school sequence when they arrive on campus. While some of the students coming out of the high school programs are mathematically very capable, many are weak and are not ready to proceed to the first course taken after a year of calculus. This book was developed as a response to these conditions, it can be considered as a ""calculus with basic analysis"" bridge course. ... Change always produces the need for reaction and that is true in education as well. In this case the author has done an excellent job in creating a text for a course in advanced calculus that could serve as a bridge course for incoming students that have had calculus in high school or those that took calculus years earlier. ...""
