More DescriptionThis book's approach is based on two beliefs. First, that almost nobody understands calculus fully the first time around, multiple exposures are required. Second, that graphing calculators can be used to make theoretical concepts clear. This book presents the theoretical pieces of introductory calculus, using appropriate technology, offering a large range of increasingly sophisticated examples and problems to build understanding. It uses the "spiral approach" of presentation, returning again and again to difficult topics, to help readers gain an in depth understanding of calculus.
