Editorial Review: Product Description: The sequel to How to Ace Calculus, How to Ace the Rest of Calculus provides humorous and highly readable explanations of the key topics of second and third semester calculus—such as sequences and series, polor coordinates, and multivariable calculus—without the technical details and fine print that would be found in a formal text. Average Rating:
 Rating:  - Great Review - Textbook CompanionShould not replace your textbook, but is great for supplement. I decided to take multivariate calculus after not taking a math class for more than 3 years. I read the corresponding chapter in prior to each lecture and got an A in the class. Each chapter takes less than 20 min to read and provided a great introduction with examples for all topics. Helped me understand the class lectures much more thoroughly. I would highly recommend this book. Rating: - Great book.I, personally, love this series of books. You are not likely to learn calculus from it, but it is good for review (I recommend reading it before your class or before the lecture on a particular subject) or if you are just looking for an alternate explanation to a topic or technique. It was a big help in my studies. Rating: - Calculus now makes sense!I am graduate student in Pharmacy, but had to take Calculus as prerequisite for more complicated classes, like Differential Equation and Physical Chemistry. Although I had very basic Calculus in my undergraduation program, it didn't make sense to me. I borrowed this book from a friend and started reading in paralel with textbook. Calculus is now becoming funny!!!! I strongly reccomend this book for those who does not understand what genious say in common textbooks! I really would like to find other ... Read More Rating: - Best Side-Text AvailableStudents of calculus often find that they "don't understand" what the textbook is saying, what the teacher is saying, what the problem is saying/asking. This book explains the mathematics with integrity and humor. Over the past several years I am sure that more than a hundred of my students have purchased this book and the prequel, How to Ace Calculus, and to a one they all love it! When the stuff in class doesn't hang together we all turn to "Colin and friends" to see how they explain it. Rating: - Saved Me in Calc II !!!!This book is great. Provides a solid foundation for the concepts in calc 2, explains the whys, and puts them all into perspective. Was more helpful than my prof or my textbook! Highly recommend...helps SO much.
