      Conditions matches well enough

      The "good" condition status is relatively accurate. some bends in the pages and the binding is showing some creasing at this point, but looks like it's holding together. Primarily I'm please because there are few to none marks or highlights on any of the pages, so for a book like this, that is the best-case scenario. Otherwise from the condition, it's a calculus book. You can use it to learn calculus. That's my intention for it. Not much else to say on whether the content is compelling. Happy studying.

    • A wondrous calculus book.

      This book is amazing. They cover (condensed) subject matter from a three-course sequence in calculus. Whether you're looking to find the radius of the osculating circle, integrating over a surface, or just wondering what the derivative of e^x is, this book is for you. 'Twas a wondrous read indeed.
