Calculus Refresher for the FE Exam was written in response to the requests of countless FE candidates. Many engineers report having more difficulty with problems involving calculus than with anything else on the FE exam. Almost everyone can benefit from a concise review of the subject!

The author provides background theory, clear explanatory text, relevant examples, and FE-style practice problems (with solutions). 120 pp.
