Calculus
Calculus offers spectacular landmarks for the adventurer who explores its expansive lush terrain. Breathtaking vista beyond the wildest imaginations of pioneers from not so long ago. But amidst all the sightseeing and the demanding march in between, it is far too easy to miss the remarkable simplicity that lies at its core. Far from being a gigantic collection of eternal truths, it is a concrete subject, motivated by the desire to explain the world around us. In fact, it is universal, precisely because the underlying ideas are so basic. So basic, you could have discovered them too!
By applying our knowledge of arithmetic into new worlds, we will chart a trail starting from the humble 1 + 1 and ascend up and up to a glorious view of the Schrödinger’s equation and the quantum world, ready to confidently jump into the next adventure!
