Features: This book is a revised edition of "Advanced Mathematics" (Volumes 1 and 2, compiled by the Department of Mathematics, Huazhong University of Science and Technology), published by Higher Education Press in 1997. Adhering to the principles of "general, concise, convenient, and easy to read," the book adopts a series of effective measures—such as simplification, consolidation, analogy, emphasis, and optimization—to redesign the teaching content of traditional calculus (i.e., advanced mathematics) into a teaching system that is concise and easy to understand, with clear mathematical concepts, highlighted key and difficult points, and a focus on practical application skills. Practice has proven that this approach can enhance teaching efficiency within limited class time, enabling students to better and faster grasp the knowledge of calculus. The book is published in two volumes. Volume 1 mainly includes: functions, limits and continuity, derivatives and differentials, mean value theorems and their applications, indefinite integrals, definite integrals, and ordinary differential equations. The back of the book provides an integral table, answers to exercises, and an index of names and terms. This book is suitable for students of science and engineering majors in general universities and colleges as a textbook for calculus.
