"Mathematics is a very dynamic discipline and is useful in various fields which has led to new applications. The developments and changes equip students with the needed mathematical skills to confidently face challenging and difficult tasks ahead. Students taking science, technology, engineering and mathematics courses needed a well-founded critical thinking skills to meet the challenges of the global market. In response tothe need to help students possess a profound understanding of Calculus and reduce their risk of failing their work text in Calculus was developed." --
