The second book in the "How to Ace" series, "How to Ace the Rest of Calculus" is a witty, irreverent, and practical guide to mastering second and third semester calculus. Based on the premise that students learn best when presented with direct, concise, and informal information, the pedagogy captures the tone and content of students exchanging ideas among themselves. A supplement for any type of calculus text.
