2nd EDITION
Full Frontal Calculus:
An Infinitesimal Approach
Single-variable calculus, presented with panache: crisp, concise, and with a smoky infinitesimal flavor. Now in its 2nd edition - older, wiser, and 20 pages fatter, mainly on account of more expansive explanations.
Download some excerpts from the 1st edition (prefaces, table of contents, and 3 complete chapters) for free.
​
Then, after finding you like it, purchase the full text of the new and improved 2nd edition as a paperback at Amazon for $29, or as a pdf at Lulu for $12.
