Calculus: An Intuitive and Physical Approach (any good?)

[swashbucklord]

Hi all,
Teaching myself calculus. Wondering about the book in the title.
Any feedback is appreciated.

Depends for what. As a first exposure in higschool? Yeah sure. As a prep for college / college work? Probably not.

I can say that calculus is an essential tool in many fields of science and engineering. It allows us to understand and model complex systems and make accurate predictions. In my experience, finding a good resource for learning calculus is crucial.

I have not personally used the book "Calculus: An Intuitive and Physical Approach," but from the title, it seems like it may offer a unique perspective on the subject. It is always beneficial to have a solid understanding of the physical and intuitive concepts behind mathematical principles, and this book may provide that.

However, I would recommend doing some research and reading reviews from other readers before making a decision on which book to use for self-teaching. It's also a good idea to consult with a math instructor or someone who has a strong understanding of calculus to get their opinion on the book.

Overall, I believe that with dedication and the right resources, anyone can learn calculus. So keep exploring and don't hesitate to try out different materials until you find one that works best for you. Best of luck in your learning journey!
