Calculus and Its Applications (9th Edition)
Widely adopted and highly acclaimed, these texts present calculus in an intuitive way through the use of calculus in contemporary, real-life applications in the biological, social, and management sciences. They begin the calculus as soon as possible -- relying heavily on graphical analysis and informal geometric proofs throughout. They also pay close attention to students' real and potential problems in learning calculus. Nearly one-quarter of each text is devoted to exercises -- equivalent to a built-in workbook -- giving students plenty of opportunity for hands-on practice.--This text refers to an alternateHardcoveredition.
