Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book introduces the calculus, a mathematical tool developed over three hundred years ago by Isaac Newton. Calculus allows us to investigate and solve problems involving change, such as the speed of a moving object or the shape of a curve, and has since been applied to a wide range of fields, from physics to economics. The author provides clear explanations of the main ideas and techniques of calculus, from the concept of a 'function' to differentiation and integration. With solved examples and exercises to try alongside the text, the reader is guided through calculations that demonstrate the power of calculus to solve problems in areas such as motion, rates of change, and optimization. An understanding of calculus is essential for understanding much of modern science and technology. However, students do not need a background in science or engineering to grasp the fundamental concepts of calculus. By reading this book, the reader will be well-equipped to apply calculus to problems in their own field of interest.
