Sumario:Flummoxed by formulas? Queasy about equations? Perturbed by pi? Now you can stop cursing over calculus and start cackling over Math, the newest volume in Bill Robertson's accurate but amusing Stop Faking It! best sellers.

This book focuses on the reasoning behind the rules, from math basics all the way up to a brief introduction to calculus.
