Brief Calculus
by Benjamin Crowell
2015
Number of pages: 207
Description:
This short introductory text focuses mainly on integration and differentiation of functions of a single variable, although iterated integrals are discussed. Infinitesimals are used when appropriate, and are treated more rigorously than in old books like Thompson's Calculus Made Easy, but in less detail than in Keisler's Elementary Calculus: An Approach Using Infinitesimals. Proofs are given for all important results, but are often relegated to the back of the book, and the emphasis is on teaching the techniques of calculus rather than on abstract results.

Most students already have assigned textbooks when studying Calculus I, therefore this free book takes a different approach. It focuses on explaining the central theories and warns students of the areas where mistakes are traditionally made.
