Reader Reviews
This workbook is an excellent companion to Ryan's book _Calculus for Dummies_. In fact I might go so far as to say the two should be considered one volume. In this book you'll find the extra exercises and problems that may not have been copious enough in the _Calculus for Dummies_ book alone. And of course he also walks you through the solutions. I might have wished for more problems instead of the space to actually work them in the text, but that is a minor detail. Overall this is part of a set that serves as an excellent introduction / preview / study aide to beginning calculus. Although I suppose this work could be used alone by someone just wanting to brush up on their calculus via some worked problems. Either way its a good buy.
