About the Book

This textbook is unique.

It provides all the required material for successful completion of AP Calculus AB even for a student working alone. Simple explanations of complex ideas are followed by a variety of worked examples. Each chapter contains many worksheets offering a very wide selection of problems; multiple-choice, calculator, non-calculator, practical, theoretical, graphical. Answers appear directly after each worksheet. There are far more problems than would normally be assigned and hence the textbook is quite enough on its own. Many of the problems are original accumulated over decades from actual classroom settings. The excellent exam results of our students, while using this book, are a testament to its value.
