Dear Physics Forum personnel,
I would like to investigate the depth of single-variable calculus by reading either Courant/John's "Calculus and Analysis" or Apostol's "Calculus Vol.1". Of course, I know the best route of action is to go to mu university library, but I just found out that all of them were checked out! I am seeking one that covers both theories and applications of 1-variable calculus in an insightful manner. Studying either of those texts will also aid my research in the computation theory and also my preparation for the Putnam Compeititon.
As for my background, I had read Serge Lang's "A First Course in Calculus", and I am currently studying Artin's "Algebra" and Hoffman/Kunze's "Linear Algebra". PK
