With over three decades of experience teaching math and physics, the author Sudhir K. Sood Ph.D. has written this workbook to help you master the most essential calculus skills of calculating derivatives, limits and integrals quickly and accurately. To this end, it is carefully divided into following twenty one chapters. 1. Basic Differentiation Rules and the Derivatives of Polynomials 2. The Chain Rule 3. The Product Rule 4. The Quotient Rule 5. Derivatives of Trigonometric Functions 6.. Derivatives of Inverse Trigonometric Functions 7. Derivatives of Exponential Functions 8. Derivatives of Logarithmic Functions 9. Derivatives of Hyperbolic Functions 10. Derivatives of Implicit Functions 11. Second Order Derivatives 12.Extreme Values-Maxima and Minima 13. Limits and L’Hôpital’s Rule 14. Indefinite Integrals and Integrals of Polynomials 15. Definite Integrals 16. Integrals of Trigonometric Functions 17. Integrals of Exponential, Logarithmic and Hyperbolic Functions 18 Integration by Polynomial Substitution 19. Integration by Trigonometric Substitution 20. Integration by Parts 21. Multiple Integrals What is inside? Each chapter of the workbook begins with a concise yet self-contained discussion of the topic of the chapter supplemented by formulas, identities and properties of various functions, their derivatives and anti-derivatives. This is followed by a number of examples that are solved step by step with explanation of every step. In order to help the readers recapitulate what they learnt earlier, these explanations include clearing up of ‘simple’ calculation skills like addition/subtraction of fractions, multiplication/division of exponents, use of trigonometric and logarithmic identities and so on At the end of every chapter, a variety of practice exercises are provided to test your problem solving skills as well as your comprehension and retention of the topic. Full solution of every practice exercise can be found at the back of the workbook to allow you to check your answers. An effort is made to provide really detailed answers without skipping any steps. Who this workbook is for? Students taking introductory calculus course in high schools, colleges and universities who can use it as a text book or a supplementary book. Those from various fields like sciences, engineering, economics, medicine and others who wish to learn or to brush up their knowledge about derivatives, limits and integrals, which they need to solve myriad problems in their respective fields. All those in home study programs, parents wanting to help their kids and other adults of all ages who wish to have a handle on differentiation, limits and integration. About the Author Sudhir K. Sood obtained his Ph.D. degree in fundamental particle physics. As research scientist and Professor of Physics at Universities in France, Canada and India, Dr. Sood has taught a number of courses both at introductory and advanced graduate level. He has lectured at international Physics conferences and authored numerous well-cited research papers that are published in reputed peer reviewed journals. More recently, for more than a decade, he has taught physics and mathematics to students who wish to specialize in engineering, medicine and physical science courses.

Good examples.
I’m just getting back into calculus again after being a c student. Lack of preparation and a tour of duty Now I’d like to keep trying to master it.

Outstanding!
Just started working thru this (physical) book. It is just fantastic. I wanted to review my long forgotten Calculus from my Computer Science degree to work on understanding how Machine Learning algorithms work. This book is perfectly organized and complete. Dr. Sood expertly explains and walk you thru every important concept and example with detailed solutions. I also very much like that he repeats important rules and concepts along the way, strengthening your understanding. There are many math videos on YT, but this book is better than any YT video. Lastly, the book is not a grind like others. It's quite enjoyable. Don't hesitate. This is the one your looking for.

super well organized, super comprehensive
This is an excellent book. It is extremely well organized, building to higher levels of complexity in sensible steps. There are many many examples and problems - well laid out and easy to follow. It is also comprehensive - covers everything I could think of! A handy companion for the math teacher, and it easily could be the only book needed to gain understanding and competency for the beginner student. An excellent book for the advanced student looking to brush up and review.

Great review workbook!
I wanted to review some calculus before tutoring a student in differential equations. This was awesome. The right quantity of problems for each topic and a good breadth of subjects. Exactly what I needed to make sure I could move on to the harder stuff.

Such a great workbook!!!
This book saved my studies. I gave up long time ago but decided to give it a try w this workbook. Great exercises. I like how level of difficulty increases gradually as you learn more and more skills. The book not only provides examples that can be easily applied in tasks you’re supposed to solve but you can always look at the back of the book at solutions and see step by step how it’s supposed to be solved. Honestly I’m addicted to solving math problems now bcs of this and other book of this series. I’m very happy with my purchase and I can’t wait to go back to studying math.
