A very basic introduction to calculus. Most of the method I remember from high school maths class, except for the clearly described theory of boundaries. Boundaries and limit theory are the roots of Calculus, and I fear that my high school classwork covered these insufficiently.
Calculus, like any mathematics or science, is based on several assumptions (which assures us, by the way, that science cannot solve every question, even if we wished that it could; the ones it cannot or does not wish to it pushes away by refusing to consider them). Functions and their derivatives cannot be defined until all anomalies and unwanted ripples are eliminated using boundaries.
I will advise readers to go carefully over the text and perhaps familiar methodology, if only to relearn the theory of boundary conditions. This book is very well presented, clear and concise. If the pages had been finer, the weight of the book and its size may have been reduced.
