Synopsis

From the Preface of this 864 page book: This new edition continues to be a mainstream textbook for a three semester (four or five quarter) calculus course. Like its predecessors, it stresses the seven fundamental concepts of calculus: function, limit, continuity, derivative, anti-derivative, definite integral, and finite series, and applies them in a myriad of practical situations. In style, it is simple and direct with clear explanations, an abundance of illustrative examples, and carefully graded problem sets." Chapters include: Functions and Limits; The Derivative; Applications of the Derivative; The Integral; Applications of the Integral; Transcendental Functions; Techniques of Integration; Indeterminate Forms and Improper Integrals; Numerical Methods, Approximations; Infinite Series; Conics and Polar Coordinates; Geometry in the Plane, Vectors; Geometry in Space, Vectors; The Derivative in n-Space; The Integral in n-Space; Vector Calculus; and Differential Equations.
