I am an engineer student from Norway who is not that fascinated with "engineering maths", so I am trying to work through Spivak's Calculus book on my own. I know that there is no "how to" manual for grokking concepts. But I wonder if anyone has used writing as a tool to understand complex concepts. The reason I ask is i bumped into this essay about writing, and I was wondering how that relates to my epic battle with Spivak's book. Any thoughts?
