This book and this very edition has a special place in my hear, since its the <br />
text that I learned Calculus from. This text cover 4 quarters or 3.5 semesters <br />
at the university level. I know this is far from the current edition, but it was <br />
essential to my education. And yes I did every problem in here!<br />
<br />
James Stewart's well-received Calculus: Concepts and Contexts, Second Edition <br />
follows in the path of the other best-selling books by this remarkable author. <br />
The First Edition of this book was highly successful because it reconciled two <br />
schools of thought: it skillfully merged the best of traditional calculus with <br />
the best of the reform movement. This new edition continues to offer the <br />
balanced approach along with Stewart's hallmark features: meticulous accuracy, <br />
patient explanations, and carefully graded problems. The content has been <br />
refined and the examples and exercises have been updated. In addition, Calculus: <br />
Concepts and Contexts, Second Edition now includes a free CD-ROM for students <br />
that contains animations, activities, and homework hints. The book integrates <br />
the use of the CD throughout by using icons that show students when to use the <br />
CD to deepen their understanding of a difficult concept. In Calculus: Concepts <br />
and Contexts, this well respected author emphasizes conceptual understanding - <br />
motivating students with real world applications and stressing the Rule of Four <br />
in numerical, visual, algebraic, and verbal interpretations. All concepts are <br />
presented in the classic Stewart style: with simplicity, character, and <br />
attention to detail. In addition to his clear exposition, Stewart also creates <br />
well thought-out problems and exercises. The definitions are precise and the <br />
problems create an ideal balance between conceptual understanding and algebraic <br />
skills.<br />
