Product Description:
Stewart's remarkable new calculus text signals the meeting of two schools of thought at one historic junction. Calculus: Concepts and Contexts, Single Variable maintains mathematical integrity as it skillfully merges the best of traditional calculus with the best of the reform movement. Written from the ground up, this all-new text takes students beyond memorization and helps them to develop mathematical thinking skills.
In Calculus: Concepts and Contexts, Single Variable, this well-respected author emphasizes conceptual understanding--motivating students with real world applications and stressing the Rule of Four in numerical, visual, algebraic, and verbal interpretations. All concepts are presented in the classic Stewart style: with simplicity, character, and attention to detail. In addition to his clear exposition, Stewart also creates well thought-out problems and exercises. The definitions are precise and the problems create an ideal balance between conceptual understanding and algebraic skills.

To make book's review is quite hard specially if you are not writting in your native language. The book is a good one, i think is well written and you can understand a lot of the magic matematics reading. Of course, you should study very much if you want to learn!.

This is a well put together, comprehensive, and easy to understand calculus book. The material and explanations are succint, thereby not confusing. For anyone who should be taking calculus, this is a good book.

The text is very good, straightforward, readable, and has great graphs (I especially like the sections with the graphing calculator). However, the book lacks a) the rigor and b) the amount of examples which would make it an excellent text. The sequences and series unit was cut a bit short, and there could have been more in the differential equations unit (like, for example, how to solve second-order differential equations). Overall, a good textbook.

James Stewart has gone far and beyond from the ordinary math course. He uses good examples and excellent looking graphics. However, once you start doing the problems they soon become quite difficult after doing four or five of them. I have spoken to a different Calculus instructor, not mine, and he says the same thing. He said that the author did not publish enough simple, easy to do problems before immediately getting into real difficult problems. I give it 2 stars because it might be easy ... Read More
