Analytic Geometry and Calculus
by F.S. Woods, F.H. Bailey
Publisher: Ginn and Company 1917
ISBN/ASIN: B007MHSU8S
Number of pages: 542
Description:
The first part of the book brings together all methods for the graphical representation of functions of one variable, both algebraic and transcendental. This has the effect of devoting the first part of the book to analytic geometry of two dimensions, the analytic geometry of three dimensions being treated later when it is required for the study of functions of two variables. The transition to the calculus is made early through the discussion of slope and area, the student being thus introduced in the first year of his course to the concepts of a derivative and a definite integral as the limit of a sum.

Elliptic Integralsby Harris Hancock - J. Wiley
Elliptic integrals originally arose in connection with the problem of the arc length of an ellipse. The author limits the monograph to the Legendre-Jacobi theory. He confines the discussion to the elliptic integrals of the first and second kinds.

Mathematics For Engineering Studentsby Samuel Keller - D. Van Nostrand Company
Much that is ordinarily included in treatises on Analytics and Calculus, has been omitted from this book, not because it was regarded as worthless, but because it was considered quite unnecessary for the student of engineering.
