With Bob Miller at your side, you never have to be clueless about math again!

Algebra and calculus are tough on high school students like you. Professor Bob Miller, with more than 30 years' teaching experience, is a master at making the complex simple, and his now-classic series of Clueless study aids has helped tens of thousands understand the tough subjects.

Calculus-with its integrals and derivatives-is famous for tripping up even the quickest minds. Now Bob Miller-with his 30-plus years' experience teaching it-presents high school calculus in a clear, humorous, and engaging way.
