Requesting help choosing suitable book for summer study

Re: requesting help choosing suitable calc book for summer study

Aladdin,

That's a very hard thing to do from long distance - because we do not know exactly what level you are in and what your expectations are. First go to your class teachers and ask their recommendation. If let us know that list, then we can work off of that and may be improve it.

I found Schaum series books to be very helpful. But there are many levels - and you have to choose correct level. Otherwise you'll waste your money.

Good luck...

There are oodles of good calc books. Stewart is a classic and a goodie. Larson and Hostetler also make a nice calc book with good diagrams, pictures, examples

and all that stuff we like to see in a math text. You can get on Amazon or eBay and find old editions for a very inexpensive price.

I had some physics books that were given to me recently. So I started nosing around Amazon and found the instructor's solutions manuals for cheap.

I asked my teacher today and said to me that I must focus on the next year goverment books because they focus on what you learned in these books here in lebanon.
But he told me after year 12 , yes I can.

Thank you

Hey Aladdin, what nationality was Aladdin in the story Aladdin's Lamp?
 
Re: requesting help choosing suitable calc book for summer study

Re: requesting help choosing suitable calc book for summer study

Some say Chinese,
But Aladdin's father is called Mustafa and Aladdin himself is referred to as "Alla ad Deen" in one translation. This may make one think that Aladdin is an Arab immigrant in China.
 
Re: requesting help choosing suitable calc book for summer study

Aladdin, when one thinks of this fairy tale, one natually thinks Aladdin was an Arab because of the 1001 nights. Nope, wrong, he was a Chinese, most likely of the Muslin faith.

No , Aladdin as we Arab know and which is true is from the 1001 nights, it has no relation to do with china.
