Commentary on Didactics, Variables, Fluents

B. Schweizer and A. Sklar

A chapter in Selecta Mathematica, 2003, pp 303-316 from Springer

It was rather when teaching a course in calculus at the University that I was vexed by finding that the traditional treatment forced me to dodge some difficult questions. A few years later in America,… some of these questions were raised by beginners whose initiation into calculus was my responsibility…”
