Dec 29, 2014 at 8:54 | comment | added | Mikhail Katz | Thanks, @BenCrowell. I found the following comment there: "I find it disheartening that the book was allowed to go out of print, and that there are now no (as far as I'm aware) current popular calculus texts using the infinitesimal-based approach. I, like the original poster, and like most students learning today, was always confused by what you could and couldn't do with dy and dx. How I wish I'd had this book 20 years ago." It is nice to see such enthusiasm about Keisler's book but one correction: the book is currently in print at Dover. Furthermore, there are today numerous TIC textbooks. | |
