Book Description
Excerpt from Elements of the Differential and Integral Calculus: Arranged by Albert E. Church, Improved Containing the Elements of the Calculus of Variations An experience of more than fifteen years, in teaching large Classes in the U.S. Military Academy, has afforded the Author of the following pages unusual opportunities to become familiar with the difficulties encountered by most pupils, in the study of the Differential and Integral Calculus. The results of previous endeavours to remove these difficulties were given to the Public in a former edition. The favour with which that edition has been received, induces him to offer a new one, containing, not only such modifications as have been suggested by a thorough trial in the recitation room, but, in addition, an elementary treatise on the Calculus of Variations. That he has, in some degree, realized the hope of advancing a more general and thorough study of one of the most important auxiliaries to scientific research, is an ample reward for the labour which he has bestowed upon the work. The Author has in preparation, and expects soon to publish, an Elementary Treatise on Analytical Geometry.
