Me want! Jeg vil gjerne denne!
Looking at the sample chapter suggests that while there might not be derivatives, it is a graduate level approach that plays around with things like topological spaces, coercive functions and normal cones - it is not easier than the usual approach.
Incidentally, the Mean Value Theorem is not valid if one uses just the computable reals. That blew my mind when Ben Goertzel pointed it out to me.
