Yet Another Calculus Text
by Dan Sloughter
2007
Number of pages: 147
Description:
I intend this book to be, firstly, a introduction to calculus based on the hyperreal number system. In other words, I will use infinitesimal and infinite numbers freely. Just as most beginning calculus books provide no logical justification for the real number system, I will provide none for the hyperreals. Secondly, I have aimed the text primarily at readers who already have some familiarity with calculus. Although the book does not explicitly assume any prerequisites beyond basic algebra and trigonometry, in practice the pace is too fast for most of those without some
acquaintance with the basic notions of calculus.

Differential Calculusby Shanti Narayan - S. Chand And Company
This book is meant for students preparing for the B.A. and B.Sc. examinations. The treatment of the subject is rigorous but no attempt has been made to state and prove the theorems in generalised forms and under less restrictive conditions.
