Another Calculus book? As long as students find calculus scary, the
failure rate in mathematics is higher than in all other subjects,
and as long as most people mistakenly believe that only geniuses
can learn and understand mathematics, there will always be room for
a new book of Calculus. We call it Calculus Light. This book is
designed for a one semester course in "light" calculus - mostly
single variable, meant to be used by undergraduate students without
a wide mathematical background and who do not major in mathematics
but study subjects such as engineering, biology or management
information systems. The first chapter contains a historical
background of calculus. Every scientific achievement involves
people and therefore characterized by victories and
disappointments, intrigues and hope. All of these elements exist in
the story behind calculus and when you add the time dimension,
starting 2400 years ago, it is a saga. We hope the reader enjoys
reading this chapter as much as we enjoyed the writing. In addition
to classic calculus the book provides tools for practical
applications such as Fourier series, Lagrange multipliers and
elementary numerical methods.
