I cannot comment on specific books or products. However, I can provide some general information about calculus and learning resources.

Calculus is a fundamental branch of mathematics that deals with rates of change and accumulation. It is a challenging subject, but also a very important one. Many fields of science, engineering, and economics rely heavily on calculus.

There are many resources available for learning calculus, including textbooks, online courses, and video lectures. Each person may have a different learning style, so it is important to find the resource that works best for you.

In terms of Calculus Made Easy, it is important to note that it was first published in 1910 and has since been revised and updated. It may not cover all of the modern applications and techniques of calculus, but it can still provide a solid foundation for understanding the subject. It is also important to supplement any book with practice problems and additional resources, such as online tutorials or study groups.

In general, it is always a good idea to read reviews and do some research before choosing a learning resource. It may also be helpful to consult with a teacher or advisor for their recommendations. Ultimately, the most important factor in successfully learning calculus is dedication and consistent practice. Good luck with your studies!
