Calculus Books for practice integration problems and calc 3

Click For Summary
For those seeking a practice book focused on definite and indefinite integration, "Technical Mathematics with Calculus" by Linda Davis is recommended for its accessible problems ranging from easy to intermediate levels. This book, published in 1990, covers a variety of topics including differential equations and is noted for its clarity. Additionally, for a more theoretical approach, "Inside Interesting Integrals" is suggested as an engaging resource that explores clever techniques and tricks related to integration, though it is not a traditional textbook. For foundational calculus topics similar to those in Griffiths, a more in-depth resource is sought, but specific titles were not mentioned in the discussion.

I am looking for a (practice)book that has problems on definite and indefinite integration from easy to intermediate.

also which book covers the prerequisites of calculus for books like Griffiths.(similar to the topics in chap 1 of Griffiths but more in-depth)

I bought the book "Technical Mathematics with Calculus" by Linda Davis in a bookstore quite a few years ago that has the problems you mention. I found the book relatively easy to follow and was happy with the purchase. It covers simple stuff up to differential equations. Mine is copyright 1990 by Merrill Publishing Company. Library of Congress catalog card number: 89-63150. International Standard Book Number: 0-675-20965-x. Good luck finding it or another one that suits you.
 
By the way, if you would like something a little more pure-mathsy I think you will really like "Inside interesting integrals", it's a very fun book which isn't so much a textbook as instead a discussion of cute tricks and clever approaches. I haven't finished it yet but what I have read of it is very nice.
 

Thread 'Complex analysis or calculus?'

Im currently reading mathematics for physicists by Philippe Dennery and André Krzywicki, and I’m understanding most concepts however I think it would be better for me to get a book on complex analysis or calculus to better understand it so I’m not left looking at an equation for an hour trying to figure out what it means. So here comes the split, do I get a complex analysis book? Or a calculus book? I might be able to Borrow a calculus textbook from my math teacher study that for a bit and...
