This difficult to understand branch of math was first introduced to me in a two year college as a REVIEW. Needless to say, I didn't get very far. Neither did the rest of the class except ONE (brilliant) student. This text is excellent in its presentation, both in text and graphics. I wish this had been my textbook for the class!

I was in a jugle, a deep, dark, frightening jungle. The jungle of CALCULUS. Suddenly a light came in front. A subtle, fagile one but growing even larger and larger as I slowly crawled towards the middle of this book. Now I walk more confident, steping firmly with a backbone for dummies:-) I strongly recomend this book to everyone who have entered the financial area with weak mathematical skills.
