Omschrijving
Calculus in Context is a compelling exploration-for students and instructors alike-of a discipline that is both rich in conceptual beauty and broad in its applied relevance.
The depth of detail in each application [offered by Calculus in Context] provides an excellent structure for guiding students through the “why should we care” moments that every calculus class experiences.
—Mathematical Association of America
Recommended.
—Choice
Hahn's book is the perfect choice for college and university teachers who want to teach calculus with reference to its origins and applications.
—Zentralblatt Math
Very well written in an engaging and enthusiastic style: it is very suitable for first year students, is perhaps not too demanding for students about to enter university, and it is particularly useful to those with more than a passing interest in astronomy. There is plenty to learn for the reader, and the massive text is also a good reference book on calculus. This labour of love from the author more than satisfies the high hopes for a good calculus book... and I highly recommend it.
