Abstract

Last year, I attended the Mathematica Summer School. My project was to publish electronically a calculus book using the Wolfram Research environment. Dr. Gray and Faisal were my  mentors. The book is now almost finished. It was done using more than 200 Demonstrations related to one variable differentiable calculus from the Wolfram Demonstration Project. The Demonstrations were in an order similar to that of a traditional differential calculus book of one variable, and they were extended with theory and explanations pertaining to each of the Demonstrations; links to related material on the web are also included. The book is intended to be used as a complementary aid to a course in one variable differentiable calculus; it can be classified  as an electronic book, and can be accessed through the web. Permission to use it by academic institutions is subject to Wolfram Approval. During the process of  producing this book, I have developed, with the aid of my mentors, a set of tools for writing electronic books in other subjects, in which either the necessary demonstrations already exist in the Wolfram Demonstrations Project or can be developed by the authors.
