Description: This LOT of 3 books inspires the mind with the history of mathematical concept development, as well as modern-day applications. The calculus book is all math, an introduction to derivatives. The lot includes: - Trigonometric Delights by Eli Maor, 2002 sixth printing and first paperback printing, Princeton University Press, ISBN 0-691-09541-8, 236 pagesBlending history, biography, and mathematics, this book presents an overview of the main elements of trigonometry from the viewpoint of "...its vital contribution to science and social development." It provides "...a tapestry of entertaining stories, scientific curiosities, and educational insights..." Author Eli Maor received his Ph.D. from the Israel Institute of Technology and teaches the history of mathematics at Loyola University Chicago. - e: The Story of a Number by Eli Maor, 1998 ninth printing and first paperback printing, Princeton University Press, ISBN 0-691-05854-7, 227 pagesEuler's number, "e," is an irrational number (roughly 2.71828) and the base of natural logarithms that appear in everything from probability theory (standard normal distribution) to finance (compounding interest). It has further applications in physics, biology, and engineering -- and it even appears in nature. Designed for those with only a modest background in mathematics, this book explores "...the elegant mathematics that lie behind the number" that also illuminated a golden era of science. - Introduction to Derrivatives Calculus by Adrian Harrison, 2019 self-published, ISBN 9781070435060, 80 pagesPart of the "Easy Mathematics" series, this book is for those who are interested in derivatives, but don't necessarily have prior knowledge. Using a "simple and practical approach" (explanation, examples with solutions, and working tests), it is designed to help beginners understand the basic concepts of integral and integration.
