- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5its a nice book
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5I used this book to refresh my understanding of derrivatives and calculus one in general. I'm not sure how effective it would be at teaching you the subject from scratch, but it is an excellent resource if you forgot a few things.
