Intuitive approach to Calculus

Calculus and Analytic Geometry by Donald W. Trim , January 1983 edition, is a textbook for students with already a good base in precalculus mathematics. The analytic geometry part consists of the plane or 2-dimensional one in pages 9 to 26 in the first chapter of the book and in pages 500-514 for the 3-dimensional part. From chapter 2 on Limits to Chapter 16 on Differential Equations it goes into Calculus mode. There are 2 Appendixes : Appendix A on Mathematical Induction and Appendix B on Determinants. Answers to Even-numbered Exercises are given at the back. An Index is also provided. The 16 chapters mean a development of 866 pages, including the exercises. The textbook carries a heavy emphasis on graphs and a lot of exercises for application even though the author provides many examples throughout the text. The text should be covered with diligence over a 2-semester period or 8 months .
