Summary |
This textbook, designed for a single semester course, begins with basic set theory, and moves briskly through fundamental, exponential, and logarithmic functions.

The text finishes with chapters on integrals, the mathematics of finance, complex numbers, and differential and difference equations.Rich in targeted examples and explanations, Mathematic |
