A Furman University math professor, Dan Sloughter, has written a textbook on difference and differential equations and has made it freely accessible to all mathematics students. According to the Furman course catalog students should prepare for this text and course by taking a course on Vectors and Matrices (probably equivalent to what most consider a third semester of calculus).
This free online calculus textbook includes answers to selected problems. It can be viewed online as a series of PDF files or downloaded as a single 3.1 MB file.
