Summary
Often calculus and mechanics are taught as separate subjects。 It shouldn't be like that。 Learning calculus without mechanics is incredibly boring。 Learning mechanics without calculus is missing the point。 This textbook integrates both subjects and highlights the profound connections between them。
This is the deal。 Give me 350 pages of your attention， and I'll teach you everything you need to know about functions， limits， derivatives， integrals， vectors， forces， and accelerations。 This book is the only math book you'll need for the first semester of undergraduate studies in science。
With concise， jargon-free lessons on topics in math and physics， each section covers one concept at the level required for a first-year university course。 Anyone can pick up this book and become proficient in calculus and mechanics， regardless of their mathematical background。

Currently reading and will be reading this book for awhile。 Extremely challenging book， with a great overview of calculus， algebra and geometry。 I am currently on page 90 and it has taken me 2 months to get to this point。 Yet I am learning a ridiculous amount of math at a pretty good rate。 The only criticism I have so far， is that the author complains about professors and teachers throwing unnecessary curve balls and complex equations at their students， when he does exactly the same thing。 I hav Currently reading and will be reading this book for awhile。 Extremely challenging book， with a great overview of calculus， algebra and geometry。 I am currently on page 90 and it has taken me 2 months to get to this point。 Yet I am learning a ridiculous amount of math at a pretty good rate。 The only criticism I have so far， is that the author complains about professors and teachers throwing unnecessary curve balls and complex equations at their students， when he does exactly the same thing。 I have had to go back in the book many times and have banged my head against the wall over some exercises that could have been explained a little better or had better examples to explain them in the lessons。 But with that said， I have tackled through all of the exercises so far and am acquiring a huge knowledge of math。 Thank god I am almost done with the tedious math and will be entering the physics lessons in about 30 pages。 I can see what this author is trying to accomplish and have a really good feeling that when I get to the physics portion， I will have a good mathematical sense of it all。 I am really impressed with this book overall and realize this author must have taken a lot of time to put it together。Being locked down in England， due to the coronavirus， this book has not only kept my mind occupied for a good portion of the time。 It has given me a sense of accomplishment and has also given me a good getaway from my writing， which can get tedious and depressing when it's the only thing you do and focus on。 I highly recommend this book if you want to improve your math skills and also understand the world， and our existence， in a more mathematical sense。 I will post another review when I am finished with the book all together。 。。。more

Ivan Savov’s book stands among the best books I’ve ever read on the topics of math and physics。 It is so good that it can easily accompany a student from a conceptual physics course all the way through undergraduate studies for those entering career paths in the hard sciences or engineering。 This book is a handy quick-reference guide。 It is a keeper。I am recommending this book for my High School Physics students， because the content coverage is true to its title; direct， understandable， and conc Ivan Savov’s book stands among the best books I’ve ever read on the topics of math and physics。 It is so good that it can easily accompany a student from a conceptual physics course all the way through undergraduate studies for those entering career paths in the hard sciences or engineering。 This book is a handy quick-reference guide。 It is a keeper。I am recommending this book for my High School Physics students， because the content coverage is true to its title; direct， understandable， and concise。 It is extraordinary。 Unfortunately， there is drawback; the word “Bullshit” in the title。 Regardless of the potential offensiveness of the title， this book is so well organized。 Recommending it just means having the unpleasant task of sending out a parent letter - a small but necessary duty。 My only other complaint is that this reference guide unavailable as an e-book。 I am confident that future students will appreciate having it in electronic form。 。。。more

Totaly recommend this book。clearly written with good examples， the author constructs on math and physics in clear concise way。i enjoyed reading and reviewing both math and physics principles。good job

Good for applications。 Omissions of proofs in certain topics。

Was looking for a book that would help my kid get into maths and it's applications where a book is not overburdened with concepts and tries to relay information such that it can be easily grasped。 And this book delivers in spades！ P。S。 I also had a blast reading， there is something refreshing about not seeing a theorem or proof on every page of a book， having an easy read and still enjoy it， even if it's school level maths :） Was looking for a book that would help my kid get into maths and it's applications where a book is not overburdened with concepts and tries to relay information such that it can be easily grasped。 And this book delivers in spades！ P。S。 I also had a blast reading， there is something refreshing about not seeing a theorem or proof on every page of a book， having an easy read and still enjoy it， even if it's school level maths :） 。。。more

Compact and to the point。 A good supplement to whatever long winded textbook you are assigned in your math course。

Learning calculus in university？ You need this book。 It's that simple。 It is both concise and helpful。 For me it was a lifesaver。 Learning calculus in university？ You need this book。 It's that simple。 It is both concise and helpful。 For me it was a lifesaver。 。。。more
