Best multivariable calculus text for physics

Question

I will soon start studying electrodynamics from Griffith's Electrodynamics. I tried to learn the math required from the first chapter but found that I couldn't understand it very well. So are there some good textbooks for learning multivariable calculus?

Maybe tell us a little more about your math background. Did you take a multivariable calculus class and just don't remember? Or are you trying to jump right into Griffith's? — Silynn, Jun 07 '14 at 09:56

I recommend Div, Grad, Curl, and All That: An Informal Text on Vector Calculus by H. M. Schey.
