About this ebook
From the author of Calculus Simplified, an accessible, personalized approach to Calculus 2
Second-semester calculus is rich with insights into the nature of infinity and the very foundations of geometry, but students can become overwhelmed as they struggle to synthesize the range of material covered in class. Oscar Fernandez provides a “Goldilocks approach” to learning the mathematics of integration, infinite sequences and series, and their applications—the right depth of insights, the right level of detail, and the freedom to customize your student experience. Learning calculus should be an empowering voyage, not a daunting task. Calculus 2 Simplified gives you the flexibility to choose your calculus adventure, and the right support to help you master the subject.
