Common Sense of the Calculus

Abstract

FROM time to time in recent years, small books have appeared which would be more or less correctly describable under the title “How Not to Teach the Calculus.” We are sorry to find the present volume to be no exception to this rule, at least in its methods of treatment of infinitesimals.

Common Sense of the Calculus.

By G. W. Brewster. Pp. 62. (Oxford: Clarendon Press; London: Oxford University Press, 1923.) 25. net.
