I have a lecturer who has taunted me with the book "Table of Integrals, Series & Products"
by Gradshteyn & Ryshik with the fact that he could do everything in the book before he even
went to university. Not being a soviet teenager I was playing guitar & hated math but had I
that interest I'd have mastered this book by age 15
In any case, the book looked terrifying at first, absolutely terrifying, but I mean looking in it
it isn't that bad. Theoretically I should be able to manage the first 600 pages based off of
the contents of something like thomas calculus but I mean most of the integrals in this book
are pretty scary when you flip open to some random page in the early hundreds.
Just wondering if people have anything to say on this, whether there are other books I
should read with more of an inkling on how to manage the integrals in G&R
