Reviews

"There is much that all of us can learn about the teaching of calculus from this book....It is above all a delightful and entertaining introduction to mathematical problems that have inspired the creation of calculus. Read it for the sheer enjoyment of well-crafted explanations. Read it to learn something new." - from the Foreword by David Bressoud"
