By: Material type: BookBookPublication details: Boston: Birkhauser, 1969.Description: x, 275p.; hbk; 26cmISBN:
  • 9780817637071
Subject(s): DDC classification:
  • 515 EDW
Summary: ​​​In a book written for mathematicians, teachers of mathematics, and highly motivated students, Harold Edwards has taken a bold and unusual approach to the presentation of advanced calculus. He begins with a lucid discussion of differential forms and quickly moves to the fundamental theorems of calculus and Stokes’ theorem. The result is genuine mathematics, both in spirit and content, and an exciting choice for an honors or graduate course or indeed for any mathematician in need of a refreshingly informal and flexible reintroduction to the subject. For all these potential readers, the author has made the approach work in the best tradition of creative mathematics. https://link.springer.com/book/10.1007/978-0-8176-8412-9#toc
