Hey there,
I'm a high school student learning some basic linear algebra and multivariable calculus. I just ordered Spivak's Calculus on Manifolds, since the book that I've been going through was not as interesting (not a horrible cookbook, but most of the problems could be done without a lot of thought), and since I learned calculus out of his much less terse Calculus, which by and large I really enjoyed (although I did struggle with it quite a bit at the outset).
My question is, will Spivak give me all of the necessary information that one would typically get out of a standard cookbook calc 3 course? It certainly would give me more of an education, but would I learn all of the standard topics covered?
Thank you!
Brian
