Professor Fernandez' Math Videos

I am a professor of mathematics at Wellesley College and an applied mathematician by training—I earned my Ph.D. in Applied and Interdisciplinary Mathematics from the University of Michigan in 2009. This means that I’m very interested in the applications of math to other subjects, like physics and economics. My first two books, Everyday Calculus and The Calculus of Happiness, both explore the hidden math all around us. My latest book, Calculus Simplified, explains the mathematics of calculus in a streamlined, accessible, and customizable way, and discusses the many applications of the subject to the social, life, and physical sciences.
