About this book :-
"Differential and Integral Calculus for Beginners, Adapted to the Use of Students of Physics and Mechanics" by Edwin Edser is a classical "calculus" textbook designed for students seeking a clear introduction to both "differentiation" and "integration". The book begins with the fundamentals of differential calculus, explaining differentials, derivatives, and techniques for finding maxima, minima, and expansions of functions. Edser focuses on clear explanations and practical examples, making complex ideas accessible to beginners. The text then moves into integral calculus, covering basic "integration" methods and progressing to more advanced techniques. It includes applications to geometry and mechanics, helping readers understand how calculus is used to solve real-world problems. The book also introduces multiple integrals and differential equations, providing a bridge to more advanced mathematics while remaining practical and approachable. Edser’s writing style emphasizes clarity and usability rather than abstract theory. Worked examples, exercises, and step-by-step explanations allow learners to practice and solidify their understanding. This book is ideal for physics or engineering students, self-learners, or anyone who wants a structured, classical approach to calculus. It combines foundational theory, essential "techniques", and practical "applications" to help students build strong problem-solving skills and a deep understanding of calculus.

About Author :-
The author George Abbott Osborne was an author and educator focused on teaching "calculus" to students of physics and mechanics. While detailed records of where he studied or taught are scarce, his work emphasizes clarity, making complex concepts like "differentiation" and "integration" accessible to beginners. Edser’s textbooks combine theory with worked examples and exercises, helping learners master essential "techniques" and apply them to practical "applications". His classical approach remains valuable for students and self-learners seeking a strong foundation in calculus and real-world problem-solving in science and engineering.
