Thanks to the wonderful elves at Alibris, I now have my own copy of Advanced Calculus, by Frederick Shenstone Woods.
This, for those of you who don't recognize it, is the calculus text that Richard Feynman used in his self study.
This pretty much completes my Feynman library - the only bits that remain are the audio lectures (I've got the most interesting ones already), and perhaps the computation lectures.

Please, I live in Spain, and I would be very happy if someone of you could say me for a way to get this Advanced Calculus of Shenstone Woods.
Best regards
Comment by: antonio December 23,2004I bought the book from alibris in june, 04. The condition of the book was 4.5/5. And I got it only for 16 $. :)
I have been scanning the book and saving the pages as tiff files. I had planned to do this 6-8 months back itself but was busy and just happy to have a copy of the book in my hands.
I badly need this Shenstone Book, if i am to even tread a step down the path of feynman.
Pleeeeeeeeeeze anyone ,help me know the name of the publisher. I've been hunting this book since eons and have not found a single link to it! (If you don't count newsrooms, where there's millions of pople who've got their hand on it, making me greeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeen with envy.)

Comment by: Airen Aerox August 23,2005Is this book out of print now?
Comment by: Anirban Bhattacharyya May 27,2006Is the book available as an e-book? If this book created a miracle called Feynman, it may help to produce a few more Feynmen (pun intended)!
