Calculus (for those who forgot more than they remember)

I don't think I could pass my calculus course without this book. It breaks each topic down into the smallest detail and helps me understand the subject matter. To reinforce my learning, it constantly asks whether I am confused. If I am confused, it provides illustrations that break the topic down even further. Now all I need is a book just like this to cover the trigonmetric functions associated with each calculus topics.
