The Calculus for Engineers and Physicists, Vol. 5 : Integration and Differentiation (Classic Reprint)

Excerpt from The Calculus for Engineers and Physicists, Vol. 5: Integration and Differentiation

The following remarks appeared in the Preface to the First Edition of this book This work aims at the presentation of two leading features in the study and application of the higher mathematics. In the first place, the development of the rationale of the subject is based on essentially concrete conceptions, and no appeal is made to what may be termed rational imagination extending beyond the limits of man's actual physical and physiological experience. Thus no use is anywhere made of series of infinite numbers of things or of infinitely small quantities. The author believes that the logical development is both sound and complete without reference to these ideas.
