Reviews from Amazon users which were colected at the time this book was published on the website:
⭐Now I haven’t read much of this book yet so I cannot comment at this time on whether there are errors in it or not, but so far it looks good. At first glance the table of contents looks like the book is going to cover much of the same info that Calc 1 for dummies covered…BUT this is NOT the case i promise you. The book starts right off in Calc 2 and where Calc 1 for dummies left off. It covers all the topics from a college level Calc 2 course and it covers much of the material from Calc 3 and the last chapter is only about Differential Equations which is after Calc 3. This book for example covers 3D graphing, Multivariable calculus, Arc-Lengths, Areas, Parametric Equations, Complex Series & Sequences, etc. THIS IS MOST LIKELY WHY THERE IS NO CALC 3 FOR DUMMIES, it’s mostly covered in this book. You need Calc 1 knowledge though to understand this book well. Great book should have at least 4 STARS.
⭐Albert Einstein is credited with saying, “If you can’t explain it to a six year old, you don’t understand it yourself.” The authors of the “for dummies” series understand it. Without exception, I have very much appreciated and benefited from simple and clear explanations of what each method is. Math is by far the most poorly taught subject, this series is a notable exception.
⭐After having a 4 year break after high school, this book was a great resource to get me back up to speed when I entered University. It saved me having to ask embarisingly basic questions of other students who had come straight from highschool and had this information still fresh in the head. It even got me past the fundamentals and was great in helping me understand more complex calculus.
⭐You need both this and
⭐to complete Calc course for reference and self-study guide. It provide great examples and techniques to solve problems and a great help !! I think they did a great job of making life easier for a calc stuff for either reference or class use.
⭐I tutor math and this is a wonderful reference for my students and a great way to review for myself.
⭐I bough this to try and help me through calc 2. I put in a good 20 hours per week minimum studying for this class with 3 friends. It did not help me the least. I gained a greater understanding of the subject from youtube videos.
⭐This book really helped me understand the concepts of Calculus. I took Calculus II last year and had to drop it. I decided this year I would get this book so I could make sure I was successful. The writer is humorous and pretty good at explaining the basic concepts as well as pointing out the most important formulas needed. There are a few typos in the book and I even confirmed with my teacher to make sure. However, they are minor enough to not detract from the purpose of the book.
⭐This is actually a review for the first Calculus for Dummies book, but I assume this one is equally as good. That is why I bought Calculus II. A little hard to review a calculus book you just received a couple of weeks ago! Anyway, my daughter dropped out of her first calculus class at college because she just didn’t get it. I got her Calculus for Dummies I plus the workbook and it really helped her understand it, and it she ended up getting a B out of the class. So highly recommend it plus a workbook.
