Calculus: A Conceptual Approach was a CTY course and was considered the most difficult of math courses becuase of Calculus' supreme difficulty. It was only offered at Lancaster.
Course Description
From the CTY Summer Catalog (1999):
Calculus has been called one of the greatest achievements of the human intellect. Students in this course explore the underlying concepts of functions, differential and integral calculus,and differential equations. Each topic is presented geometrically, numerically,and algebraically. Formal definitions and procedures evolve from the investigation of practical problems and applications. The course incorporates independent work, discussion, and lectures by the instructor.
