Today was an easy day as far as academics go. No major assignments due and just some math homework tonight. Weight training was fun today, hang cleans with 75 lbs and three sets of five, bench press with 45 ls, 55 lbs, 65 lbs, and 75 lbs. they were sets of five and I upped the weight each time I did a set. Squats with 105 lbs, and three sets of six. No max lift in today my coach just wanted to see some steady progress from us. Next week we have a short week with only three days, so I’m gonna have to do some at home lifting. And the week after that we are going to reevaluate our max lifts.

Books on the History of Calculus

I haven't read this book yet, although I skimmed it on Amazon. It looks fairly dry, and I think I will continue to look for a more interesting one to read.

"Were it not for the calculus, mathematicians would have no way to describe the acceleration of a motorcycle or the effect of gravity on thrown balls and distant planets, or to prove that a man could cross a room and eventually touch the opposite wall. Just how calculus makes these things possible and in doing so finds a correspondence between real numbers and the real world is the subject of this dazzling book by a writer of extraordinary clarity and stylistic brio. Even as he initiates us into the mysteries of real numbers, functions, and limits, Berlinski explores the furthest implications of his subject, revealing how the calculus reconciles the precision of numbers with the fluidity of the changing universe." From Amazon

This looks like just what I am looking for - it gives the history but also explains the concepts.
