Synopsis

Continues the outstanding tradition of earlier volumes with attention to detail, well-written explanations and a lively, accessible approach to learning. The size of this edition has been substantially reduced by rewriting major portions of the material for more efficient exposition and effective use of space. New material has been added on parametric representations of surfaces, Jacobians and Kepler's laws. Also includes new reference matter on complex numbers as well as biographies and historical notes which capture the personalities of the great mathematicians.

About this title

From the Publisher

The aim of this major revision is to create a contemporary text which incorporates the best features of calculus reform yet preserves the main structure of an established and well-tested calculus course. The multivariate calculus material is completely rewritten to include the concept of a vector field and focuses on major physics and engineering applications of vector analysis. Covers such new topics as Jacobians, Kepler's laws, conics in polar coordinates and parametric representation of surfaces. Contains expanded use of calculator computations and numerous exercises.
