Calculus for Dummies is Not for Dummies
I used this book to brush up on my Calculus before the CSET, however this book was only a gloss over of what Calculus really is. This book is more about memorizing techniques and methods, than learning what Calculus really means and represents. I have my BA in Math and would only recommend this book to people who have substantial background in math, but need to brush up on the concepts.

Perfect Dummy Book Companion
I got this workbook to go with the Dummies Calculus book as a suplement to my classes. It really helps to have additional problem made for you for practice. It has helped me study for tests countless times!

Good transaction
