The only way to learn calculus is to do calculus problems. Lots of them!

And that's what you get in this book--more calculus problems than your worst nightmare—but with a BIG difference. Award-winning calculus teacher W. Michael Kelley has been through the whole book and made a ton of notes, so you get:

• 1,000 problems with comprehensive solutions
• Annotated notes throughout the text, clarifying exactly what's being asked
• Really detailed answers (no more skipped steps!)
• Extra explanations that make what's baffling perfectly clear
• Pointers to other problems that show skills you need

And all of the major players are here: limits, continuity, derivatives, integrals, tangent lines, velocity, acceleration, area, volume, infinite series—even the really tough stuff like epsilon-delta proofs and formal Riemann sums.

So dig in to your heart's content!
W. Michael Kelley is a former award-winning calculus teacher and the author of six math books, including The Complete Idiot's Guide to Algebra, Second Edition, and The Humongous Book of Calculus Problems. Kelley received an award from the Maryland Council of Teachers of Mathematics recognizing him as an Outstanding High School Mathematics Teacher and four-years-running title of Most Popular Teacher in his home school. Kelley is also the founder and editor of calculus-help.com. View titles by W. Michael Kelley
