4.0 out of 5 stars Detailed summary with lots of examples 19 April 2011
By Amelia
Format:Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase
This textbook was really useful as a supplement to the university coursework I was given, suitable for advanced A-Level to second year maths students. The examples are particularly useful as it gives you more opportunity to practice techniques needed in the exam. Would recommend this to anyone that struggles understanding examples in lectures and needs them to be broken down into more steps!

5.0 out of 5 stars An excellent companion to Calculus 15 July 2003
By Sweetcheeks McMuffin - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Paperback
I found this book to be a very good supplement to anyone taking a calculus course. The main highlights (and some, but few) lowlights are as follows:

The Good:
1. LOTS and LOTS of topics covered ranging from limit concepts to l'Hopital's rule to integral tests to multiple integrals, this book covers A LOT (and even a brief intro to differential equations.)

2. Enough practice problems to ensure that the reader will comprehend the material (as is the case with most Schaum Outline books).

3. Lots of graphs for visual learners.

4. A fraction of the price of most calculus books.

The Bad:
1. The only bad thing I could possibly think of in this book is that it explains vector concepts and differentiation and integration of vector functions and gradient, divergence, and curl, but leaves out Green's and Stokes' theorems (must be covered in the vector analysis Schaum book).

For more detail, check out the list of chapter topics on the back cover of the book (it's a pretty thick paragraph)

5.0 out of 5 stars Schaum's Calculus 4 Aug 2003
By Dr. Joseph S. Maresca - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Paperback
I've worked with several versions of the Schaum's Calculus
over the years. This work has excellent coverage of derivatives,
integrals, curvilinear motion, polar coordinates, indeterminate
forms, indefinite integrals, centroids, arc length, tests for
divergence/convergence, partial derivatives, volumes, triple
integrals and a host of exotic areas. There are many multi-
dimensional diagrams to aid in your understanding of this
fairly complex subject. I did well in Intermediate Calculus

garnering an "A". In addition, the Fundamentals of Engineering
Licensure Exam covered quite a bit of basic and intermediate
calculus. This is an excellent supplementary work to complement
the course textbook and class notes.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great Supplement 26 May 2006
By Aaron Rutledge - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase
This outline will work best for those looking for a concise supplement to their course text. The strength of this outline is in the solved problems. The weakness is in the explanation of concepts. As advertised, the book contains over 1100 fully worked problems. These problems are indeed fully worked and looking over them can be of tremendous value if you are struggling with solving particular problems in your class. If you are having a tough time with the concepts rather than the problems of calculus I would not recommend this book. The explanations are kept to a bare minimum and tough topics like delta-epsilon proofs and Reimann Integrals are not explained in detail. For instance, this book will not try to justify why you can set delta equal to epsilon to complete your limit proof, it just tells you to do it (which is exactly what you need to do to solve the problem). In other words, this book will help you solve the problems you need to solve in order to pass your exams, but it will not necessarily help you understand why those solutions work. So please do not buy this thinking it will have fuller conceptual explanations. Its strength is in its fully solved problems.
