 Thompson was a Great Teacher. January 7, 1997
6 out of 7 found this review helpful
I studied Calculus fifty years ago and read Dr. Thompson's book over the 1996 Christmas holiday. To my great pleasure and reeducation, I found the method and clarity of presentation to be refreshing, practical and, as the title says, easy to relearn. I would recommend this book to any high school student thinking about entering any of the scientific or engineering fields
Simple and sweet! November 10, 1996
8 out of 8 found this review helpful
Though it was origionally written many years ago, this book still has the power to teach anybody simple calculus. As aGeometry student, I studied this book on the side. It allowed me to skip a year of Precalculus, and still pull off the A in Calculus class. I heartily recommend this book to anybody because of its simplicity in explanation, and clearness of direction.
