I know there are other threads about Calculus textbooks but none that I saw specifically geared towards someone wanting to self teach themselves a bit of Calculus before entering into the Sciences.

Anyone know of something? Is there any Math For Premed books out there? (I'm actually just starting Prereqs to go towards Doctor of Physical Therapy)

Thanks!

    You don't need calculus for medical fields. Trust me I'm living with two medics in there last year and they haven't done any calculus and in the UK everyone is trained to the same standard. I would think there would be even less need for Maths if you went into Physical therapy side. I suppose you might need some stats, however they will probably teach you it and it would be very specific.2011-10-29

    Calc is not required, Statistics is. But understanding Calc will help do the Physics coursework and really even the Chemistry courses. I know I don't need high level calculus which is why I'm asking for a good alternative to the Calculus books that are typically geared towards mathematicians, businessmen and engineers2011-10-29
