Calculus: Early Transcendentals
by Jon Rogawski Colin Adams Robert FranzosaWe see teaching mathematics as a form of story-telling, both when we present in a classroom and when we write materials for exploration and learning. The goal is to explain to you in a captivating manner, at the right pace, and in as clear a way as possible, how mathematics works and what it can do for you. We find mathematics to be intriguing and immensely beautiful. We want you to feel that way, too.

Calculus: Early Transcendentals
by James StewartThe art of teaching, Mark Van Doren said, is the art of assisting discovery. I have tried to write a book that assists students in discovering calculus--both for its practical power and its surprising beauty. In this edition, as in the first seven editions, I aim to convey to the student a sense of the utility of calculus and develop technical competence, but I also strive to give some appreciation for the intrinsic beauty of the subject. Newton undoubtedly experienced a sense of triumph when he made his great discoveries. I want students to share some of that excitement.
Calculus (Mindtap Course List)
by James StewartJames Stewart’s CALCULUS texts are widely renowned for their mathematical precision and accuracy, clarity of exposition, and outstanding examples and problem sets. Millions of students worldwide have explored calculus through Stewart’s trademark style, while instructors have turned to his approach time and time again. In the Eighth Edition of CALCULUS, Stewart continues to set the standard for the course while adding carefully revised content. The patient explanations, superb exercises, focus on problem solving, and carefully graded problem sets that have made Stewart’s texts best-sellers continue to provide a strong foundation for the Eighth Edition. From the most unprepared student to the most mathematically gifted, Stewart’s writing and presentation serve to enhance understanding and build confidence.
Calculus: Early Transcendentals (5th edition)
by James StewartCalculus: Early Transcendentals, Fifth Edition has the mathematical precision, accuracy, clarity of exposition and outstanding examples and problem sets that have characterized the first four editions. Stewart retains the focus on problem solving and the pedagogical system that has made the book a favorite of students and instructors in a wide variety of colleges and universities throughout the world. The structure of Calculus: Early Transcendentals, Fifth Edition, remains largely unchanged, the sole exception being that the review of inverse trigonometric functions has been moved from an appendix to Section 1. 6. Stewart has made hundreds of small improvements: new examples, additional steps in existing examples, updating of data in existing examples and exercises, new phrases and margin notes to clarify the exposition, references to other sources and web sites, redrawn art, and references to the TEC CD (Tools for Enriching Calculus). These refinements ensure that students and instructors using this text are using the best resource available. The number of pages in the book, however, remains unchanged from the 4th edition. This edition is complemented with and expanded array of supplementary material for both students and instructors. These best-selling texts differ from Calculus, Fifth Edition in that the exponential and logarithmic functions are covered earlier. In the Fifth Edition of Calculus: Early Transcendentals these functions are introduced in the first chapter and their limits and derivatives are found in Chapters 2 and 3 at the same time as polynomials and other elementary functions.

Calculus: A Rigorous First Course
by Daniel J. VellemanDesigned for undergraduate mathematics majors, this rigorous and rewarding treatment covers the usual topics of first-year calculus: limits, derivatives, integrals, and infinite series. Author Daniel J. Velleman focuses on calculus as a tool for problem solving rather than the subject's theoretical foundations. Stressing a fundamental understanding of the concepts of calculus instead of memorized procedures, this volume teaches problem solving by reasoning, not just calculation. The goal of the text is an understanding of calculus that is deep enough to allow the student to not only find answers to problems, but also achieve certainty of the answers' correctness. No background in calculus is necessary. Prerequisites include proficiency in basic algebra and trigonometry, and a concise review of both areas provides sufficient background. Extensive problem material appears throughout the text and includes selected answers. Complete solutions are available to instructors.
Calculus and Its Applications
by Marvin L. Bittinger David J. EllenbogenCalculus and Its Applications, Ninth Edition, is the most student-oriented applied calculus text on the market. The authors believe that appealing to students' intuition and speaking in a direct, down-to-earth manner make this text accessible to any student possessing the prerequisite math skills. However, it is not enough for a text to be accessible--it must also provide students with motivation to learn. Tapping into areas of student interest, the authors provide an abundant supply of examples and exercises rich in real-world data from business, economics, environmental studies, health care, and the life sciences. New examples cover applications ranging from charting CEO pay to the melting polar ice cap. Found in every chapter, realistic applications draw students into the discipline and help them to generalize the material and apply it to new and novel situations. To further spark student interest, hundreds of meticulously drawn graphs, illustrations, and tables appear throughout the text, making it a favorite among students who are visual learners. Appropriate for a one-term course, this text is an introduction to applied calculus. A course in intermediate algebra is a prerequisite, although the Appendix, "Review of Basic Algebra," together with Chapter R, provides a sufficient foundation to unify the diverse backgrounds of most students.
Calculus and Linear Algebra: Fundamentals and Applications
by Aldo G. VentreThis textbook offers a comprehensive coverage of the fundamentals of calculus, linear algebra and analytic geometry. Intended for bachelor’s students in science, engineering, architecture, economics, the presentation is self-contained, and supported by numerous graphs, to facilitate visualization and also to stimulate readers’ intuition. The proofs of the theorems are rigorous, yet presented in straightforward and comprehensive way. With a good balance between algebra, geometry and analysis, this book guides readers to apply the theory to solve differential equations. Many problems and solved exercises are included. Students are expected to gain a solid background and a versatile attitude towards calculus, algebra and geometry, which can be later used to acquire new skills in more advanced scientific disciplines, such as bioinformatics, process engineering, and finance. At the same time, instructors are provided with extensive information and inspiration for the preparation of their own courses.
Calculus and Statistics
by Michael C. GemignaniSelf-contained and suitable for undergraduate students, this text offers a working knowledge of calculus and statistics. It assumes only a familiarity with basic analytic geometry, presenting a coordinated study that develops the interrelationships between calculus, probability, and statistics.Starting with the basic concepts of function and probability, the text addresses some specific probabilities and proceeds to surveys of random variables and graphs, the derivative, applications of the derivative, sequences and series, and integration. Additional topics include the integral and continuous variates, some basic discrete distributions, as well as other important distributions, hypothesis testing, functions of several variables, and regression and correlation. The text concludes with an appendix, answers to selected exercises, a general index, and an index of symbols.
