This seventh edition of Calculus includes 35 per cent new and revised exercises, and pairing of even and odd exercises. There are more exploratory and open eneded quesitons; more problems using tabular data and more emphasis on graphing calculators in exercises and examples. There is also a greater emphasis on mathematical modelling, and new sections on second order differential equations and on rotation of coordinate axes. The text is available both...
This is big, heavy, hardbound freshman text that will take you very slowly but completely into single-variable calculus. It also contains an exhaustive section on analytic geometry. If you have sloughed off through algebra and trigonometry, or if you are coming to calculus after a long hiatus, this is the book to get. This is because instead of launching directly into integration, the book's first couple of chapters (long...

When my copy of Stewart fell apart awhile back, I decided to order this to replace it, since it was one recommended by CAS/SOA for Exam 1. I am not disappointed. This has more graphs and pictures than Stewart to help explain some of the fundamentals better. While the content and the layout are pretty much the same as other Calculus books, I particularly liked the writing style of the authors, who eplained things well without...

I like this book because it assumes no prior knowledge in Calculus. It starts from the basic topics e.g. functions and develop to advanced topics e.g. vector and tensor calculus following a logical development. Besides, the book has a lot of computer graphics which make reading inviting. Also, there are numerous examples in each section which make the text easy to understand. There are too many other features and I...
