From the Preface of the First Edition: This book advocates a radically new approach to the introduction of Higher Mathematics at Freshman level. I adopt a slightly polemical tone because I'm aiming to stimulate debate. The methods, and some of the terminology, that I propose may appear unconventional, but they have sound roots in mathematical history and translate exceptionally well into digital practice, so I'll start by reviewing this background. The mathematical methods introduced by Élie Cartan the better part of a hundred years ago are now widespread in research-level work. But what is not fully acknowledged is that they can revolutionize the teaching of the subject too. All that is needed is a readable, informal account of them. Bringing in these methods, suitably simplified, right at the start, in a simple, engaging style, transforms the clarity and comprehensibility of the subject. The true meaning of so many aspects of intermediate mathematics falls naturally into place.So I'm doing two things: -I'm showing that the idea of differential forms, which crystallised around a hundred years ago, allied to the concept of simplexes, suffices as a foundation to develop the entire body of the calculus easily and quickly, and gives a much more coherent line of development.-I'm putting it in a way that is clear, readable and, hopefully, entertaining. So I have preferred English readability to mathematical formality wherever reasonably possible.Along the way, I cover in some depth various supporting fields such as vector algebra, with an introduction to the up and coming area of geometric algebra, and I also give a good, but more critical, introduction to the subject of generalised functions, which were more the fashion in Europe in the fifties. And to enrich the readability of the text, there are digressions into fields that are not obviously mathematical, especially if they relate to computer graphics or are particularly relevant to digital practice. I would hope the book's groundbreaking approach will be especially interesting to teachers working in digital applications at this level.So for those teaching the subject, I'll first give a brief summary of what I see as the salient original features of the book.1)I introduce differentiation using the exterior derivative on a scalar function to generate a 1-form, so making it multivariate from the start.2)I define integration as a product between a differential form and a simplex.3)I use the axioms of a group to show that the addition of angles in the circle leads naturally to the idea of complex numbers.4)The book incorporates geometric algebra into the presentation of vector algebra and analysis from an early stage.5)Generalised Functions are introduced fully based on differential forms, and this treatment prepares the way for an advanced coverage of Fourier and Laplace transforms.

Ready to step up your game in calculus? This workbook isn't the usual parade of repetitive questions and answers. Author Tim Hill's approach lets you work on problems you enjoy, rather than through exercises and drills you fear, without the speed pressure, timed testing, and rote memorization that damage your experience of mathematics. Working through varied problems in this anxiety-free way helps you develop an understanding of numerical relations apart from the catalog of mathematical facts that's often stressed in classrooms and households. This number sense, common in high-achieving students, lets you apply and combine concepts, methods, and numbers flexibly, without relying on distant memories.Solutions to basic problems are steeped in the fundamentals, including notation, terminology, definitions, theories, proofs, physical laws, and related concepts.Advanced problems explore variations, tricks, subtleties, and real-world applications.Problems build gradually in difficulty with little repetition. If you get stuck, then flip back a few pages for a hint or to jog your memory.Numerous pictures depicting mathematical facts help you connect visual and symbolic representations of numbers and concepts.Treats calculus as a problem-solving art requiring insight and intuitive understanding, not as a branch of logic requiring careful deductive reasoning.Discards the common and damaging misconception that fast students are strong students. Good students aren't particularly fast with numbers because they think deeply and carefully about mathematics.Detailed solutions and capsule reviews greatly reduce the need to cross reference a comprehensive calculus textbook.Topics covered: The tangent line. Delta notation. The derivative of a function. Differentiable functions. Leibniz notation. Average and instantaneous velocity. Speed. Projectile paths. Rates of change. Acceleration. Marginal cost. Limits. Epsilon-delta definition. Limit laws. Trigonometric limits. Continuity. Continuous functions. The Mean Value Theorem. The Extreme Value Theorem. The Intermediate Value Theorem. Fermat's theorem.Prerequisite mathematics: Elementary algebra. Real numbers. Functions. Graphs. Trigonometry.Contents1. The Slope of the Tangent Line2. The Definition of the Derivative3. Velocity and Rates of Change4. Limits5. Continuous FunctionsAbout the AuthorTim Hill is a statistician living in Boulder, Colorado. He holds degrees in mathematics and statistics from Stanford University and the University of Colorado. Tim has written guides for calculus, trigonometry, algebra, geometry, precalculus, permutations and combinations, and Excel pivot tables. When he's not crunching numbers, Tim climbs rocks, hikes canyons, and avoids malls.

This book is intended for those who are familiar with first year calculus, written by an author with four decades of teaching experience. It presents some very unique problem situations not available in ordinary textbooks. Many are original contributions among which are the articles on the Weight Watcher Function, collection of rooftop solar energy, measuring very hot temperatures, highway speed surveillance, and determining the rotational speeds of galaxies. Other articles deal with material not easy to find which is made readily understandable for the reader. A few examples include the one on the rotating mercury reflector, a pursuit curve, cooling tea, and the curious fountain problem whose diagram is pictured on the cover. The math formatting for the Kindle has been very carefully crafted for maximum legibility, and many illustrations are provided. Since the first version of this book was offered, the author has acquired a variety of Kindle models. This new version of the book has been designed to work on all Kindle models and is identical to the color version. Thus if you have a greyscale Kindle and a Kindle Fire, this version will display properly on both models.

The subject of special functions is often presented as a collection of disparate results, which are rarely organised in a coherent way. This book answers the need for a different approach to the subject. The authors' main goals are to emphasise general unifying principles coherently and to provide clear motivation, efficient proofs, and original references for all of the principal results. The book covers standard material, but also much more, including chapters on discrete orthogonal polynomials and elliptic functions. The authors show how a very large part of the subject traces back to two equations - the hypergeometric equation and the confluent hypergeometric equation - and describe the various ways in which these equations are canonical and special. Providing ready access to theory and formulas, this book serves as an ideal graduate-level textbook as well as a convenient reference.
