Sinopsis

Excerpt from Elementary Calculus: A Text-Book for the Use of Students in General Science

Trigonometry, the most satisfactory course would seem to be one in which the time is equally divided between Plane Analytic Geometry. And Calculus.

Excerpt from Elementary Calculus: A Text-Book for the Use of Students in General Science

This volume has been written in response to the unmistakable and growing demand for a text-book on the Calculus which shall present in a course of from thirty-five to forty exercises the fundamental notions of this branch of mathematics. In American technical schools students pursuing courses distinct from engineering branches usually terminate their mathematical studies with Plane Analytic Geometry. But in view of the recent remarkable development of certain of the general sciences along mathematical lines, such a course can no longer be regarded as adequate. Moreover, there can be no difference of opinion as to the relative advantage to the student of a knowledge of more than the mere elements of Analytic Geometry and an introductory acquaintance with the Calculus. It is, I think, the experience of every teacher that the average student first realizes the power and use of mathematics when taught to solve problems in maxima and minima by means of the methods of the Differential Calculus. Certainly no stronger argument can be adduced in favor of an adjustment of the curriculum which shall include this branch of mathematics. Such a change has been effected in the Sheffield Scientific School, and results abundantly justify the step.
