Book project update

I have just completed a 15 page chapter on calculus that covers limits, derivatives, integrals, differential equations, infinite series, and partial derivatives. This chapter is for the proposed classical mechanics book I am working on with Leonard Susskind.

I took a very minimalist approach to the subject. If you want to see how I crammed so much into so little, wait for the book... :-)

Actually, some of this material will likely find its way into my column (and I took some of it from my existing columns).

  1. I will be first in line to buy a copy when it comes out! I hope you can do a good read since Classical Mechanics ranks as one of the notorious "fear" classes for many physics students.
