　　The mere thought of having to take a required calculus course

is enough to make legions of students break out in a cold sweat.

Others who have no intention of ever studying the subject have this

notion that calculus is impossibly difficult unless you happen to

be a direct descendant of Einstein. Well, the good news is that you

can master calculus. It's not nearly as tough as its mystique would

lead you to think. Much of calculus is really just very advanced

algebra, geometry, and trig. It builds upon and is a logical

extension of those subjects. If you can do algebra, geometry, and

trig, you can do calculus. Calculus For Dummies is intended for

three groups of readers: Students taking their first calculus

course -- If you're enrolled in a calculus course and you find your

textbook less than crystal clear, this is the book for you. It

covers the most important topics in the first year of calculus:

differentiation, integration, and infinite series. Students who

need to brush up on their calculus to prepare for other studies --

If you've had elementary calculus, but it's been a couple of years

and you want to review the concepts to prepare for, say, some

graduate program, Calculus For Dummies will give you a thorough,

no-nonsense refresher course. Adults of all ages who'd like a good

introduction to the subject -- Non-student readers will find the

book's exposition clear and accessible. Calculus For Dummies takes

calculus out of the ivory tower and brings it down to earth. This

is a user-friendly math book. Whenever possible, the author

explains the calculus concepts by showing you connections between

the calculus ideas and easier ideas from algebra and geometry.

Then, you'll see how the calculus concepts work in concrete

examples. All explanations are in plain English, not math-speak.

Calculus For Dummies covers the following topics and more: *

Real-world examples of calculus * The two big ideas of calculus:

differentiation and integration * Why calculus works * Pre-algebra

and algebra review * Common functions and their graphs * Limits and

continuity * Integration and approximating area * Sequences and

series Don't buy the misconception. Sure calculus is difficult --

but it's manageable, doable. You made it through algebra, geometry,

and trigonometry. Well, calculus just picks up where they leave off

-- it's simply the next step in a logical progression.
