Description

Alongside Shakespeare’s plays and Beethoven’s symphonies, calculus is one of the greatest achievements of the human mind.

Yet, few of us understand the powerful simplicity underneath it.

The course carefully shows how calculus explains motion—and that this insight is composed of only two simple ideas.

Professor Starbird then explains how calculus has shown how everything that changes over time can be understood with its insights, uniting the way we see economics, astronomy, engineering, and even baseball, because it is an insight into the nature of reality itself.

Award-winning Professor Starbird explains the beauty of calculus to those who have been unable to see its power because of the bewildering way it is usually taught.
