The Manga Guide to Calculus

$7.99

Author Hiroyuki Kojima

Format Paperback

Publisher No Starch Press

Category Math

The Manga Guide to Calculus teaches calculus in an original and refreshing way, by combining Japanese-style Manga cartoons with serious content. This is real calculus combined with real Manga. The book's story revolves around heroine, Noriko. Noriko takes a job with a local newspaper and quickly befriends the geeky Kakeru, a math whiz who wants to help her understand the practical uses of calculus in journalism. Kakeru begins by teaching Noriko (and the book's readers) the basics of calculus, such as approximating with functions, derivatives, techniques of differentiation, and polynomials. As the book progresses, Noriko and readers learn calculus, including complex concepts like the Fundamental Theorem of Calculus, exponential and logarithmic functions, the Taylor Expansion, and partial differentiation. This charming, easy-to-read guide uses real-world examples like celebrity weight gain, TV commercials, and economics, and includes examples and exercises (with answer keys) to help readers learn. This EduManga book is a translation from a bestselling series in Japan, co-published with Ohmsha, Ltd. of Tokyo, Japan.
