Dennis Weichman, also known as Doc Irwin, has had a 50+ year career teaching mathematics based on integrity, compassion, a sense of humor, and the ability to relate to students and their concerns. After his retirement he began writing a series of Math Study Guides for High School students. Ten different guides were published with the Grade 9 book becoming a Best Seller. Because his favorite area of math is Calculus, he published this book to share his solutions to 101 common problems encountered in introductory calculus courses.
