A while ago I saw someone posting a book about Calculus in HN forum that was written decades ago, probably 40s or 50s. I liked it and could not find it back. Does anyone have link to it?
I have Thomas' Calculus from the 1960s, the same book that Knuth promotes in interviews as being responsible for him choosing a math degree. Very high signal to noise ratio without being as terse as Apostol https://www.amazon.com/Calculus-Analytic-Geometry-Supplement...
yes, I was looking for this book. Thank you. I wish I had read this when I was in school. I liked the book for explaining complex topic in a very simple, easily understandable way. This would be a great book to introduce calculus to your kids. I read chapter 2 (on different degrees of smallness) and found it enlightening.
