Calculus - the most important topic for IIT-JEE aspirants - constitutes a major part of modern mathematics. It has two major branches, differential calculus and integral calculus, which are related by the fundamental theorem of calculus. Calculus is the study of change, in the same way that geometry is the study of shape and algebra is the study of operations and their application to solving equations. A course in calculus is a gateway to other, more advanced courses in mathematics.
This book has been written by a pioneer teacher associated with IIT-JEE coaching, Dr. G.S.N. Murti, along with Dr. K.P.R. Sastry, who had an illustrious career in academia.
The book has a two-fold advantage: (a) Conceptual strength provided by accurate, precise but sufficient coverage of topics; (b) solved and unsolved problems as per IIT-JEE pattern for strengthening concepts. The main idea is to make students understand the theory behind to enable them to strategize a given problem and tactically solve it.
