Book Description
An accessible, personalized approach to Calculus 2
Second-semester calculus is rich with insights into the nature of infinity and the very foundations of geometry, but students can become overwhelmed as they struggle to synthesize the range of material covered in class. Oscar Fernandez provides a “Goldilocks approach” to learning the mathematics of integration, infinite sequences and series, and their applications—the right depth of insights, the right level of detail, and the freedom to customize your student experience. Learning calculus should be an empowering voyage, not a daunting task. Calculus 2 Simplified gives you the flexibility to choose your calculus adventure, and the right support to help you master the subject.
“This book is a uniquely effective tool for students to learn calculus. It offers bite-size treatments of topics, maintaining the formality of the mathematics while developing intuition and understanding, and includes a plethora of exercises that gives students a large set of problems to practice with.”—Marcel Blais, Worcester Polytechnic Institute
“Fernandez does a great job of meeting the students where they are and taking them further on the calculus pathway. Calculus 2 Simplified is inviting and easy to read, with well-chosen examples and engaging problems that will challenge students and hold their attention.”—David Dorman, Middlebury College
“Keeping the reader in mind, Fernandez strikes a balance between the competing demands for a Calculus 2 class.”—Shahriar Shahriari, author of An Invitation to Combinatorics and Approximately Calculus
