This exploration into the history of the Calculus begins by presenting the essential ideas that led to its development, and then surveys the subject in broad historical perspective, from the work of the Greeks through the contributions of Newton and Leibniz, up to the present day. Differential and integral calculus play an essential role in solving major scientific and engineering problems. The author assumes no prior knowledge of the subject and provides the necessary tools for understanding more advanced treatments. Through many examples and exercises, the author focuses on developing conceptual understanding rather than just producing manipulative skill. The result is a balanced and accessible introduction to a subject that is essential for understanding the modern world of science and mathematics.
