书籍简介

对许多学生来说，微积分可能是他们所上过的最令人困惑和沮丧的课程。《普林斯顿微积分读本》为学生提供了必要的工具，他们不仅需要学习微积分，而且要擅长它。在这本用户友好的学习指南中的材料已经被证明是有效的。这本书源自艾德里安·班纳在普林斯顿大学开设的微积分复习课程，这门课程是他专门为那些有动力想要得A但考试成绩一般的学生设计的。完整的课程将通过一系列的视频讲座在网上免费提供。本学习指南可作为任何单变量微积分课程或教科书的补充。加上习题的选择，这本书本身也可以作为教科书使用。这种风格是非正式的，非强制性的，甚至是娱乐性的，并且不牺牲全面性。作者详细阐述了标准的课程材料，并提供了大量详细的例子，这些例子将读者置于一种“内心独白”的状态——学生们应该遵循这样的思路来解决问题——提供了必要的推理和解决方案。

For many students, calculus can be the most mystifying and frustrating course they will ever take. The Calculus Lifesaver provides students with the essential tools they need not only to learn calculus, but to excel at it. All of the material in this user-friendly study guide has been proven to get results. The book arose from Adrian Banner's popular calculus review course at Princeton University, which he developed especially for students who are motivated to earn A's but get only average grades on exams. The complete course will be available for free on the Web in a series of videotaped lectures. This study guide works as a supplement to any single-variable calculus course or textbook. Coupled with a selection of exercises, the book can also be used as a textbook in its own right. The style is informal, non-intimidating, and even entertaining, without sacrificing comprehensiveness. The author elaborates standard course material with scores of detailed examples that treat the reader to an "inner monologue"--the train of thought students should be following in order to solve the problem--providing the necessary reasoning as well as the solution.
