Applications of Derivatives
"This chapter shows how to raw conclusions from derivatives about the extreme values of a function and about the general shape of a function's graph. We will also see how a tangent line captures the shape of a curve near the point of tangency, how to deduce the rates of change we cannot measure from rates of change we already knows, and how to find a function when we know only its first derivative and its value at a single point."
