Calculus Made Easy: An introduction to differential and integral calculus

by Sylvanus Phillips Thompson

“What one fool can do, another can.” So goes the opening of Sylvanus Thompson’s 1914 classic introduction to calculus. The Project Gutenberg edition of this book has long been one of the site’s most popular downloads, and for good reason. This relatively slender volume introduces the reader to differentiation and integration including partial derivatives (chapter 16), double and triple integrals (chapter 18), and simple differential equations (chapter 21). A table of the standard forms of integration and differentiation is included, as well as answers to exercises.This edition has been completely reset with an easy-to-read typeface, a new introduction and an appendix that provides essential background information relating Thompson’s work to the modern foundations of calculus and analysis.
