The new edition calculus textbook has been thoroughly revised. It continues to embrace the best aspects of reform by combining the traditional theoretical aspects of calculus with creative teaching and learning techniques. This is accomplished by a focus on conceptual understanding, the use of real-world data and real-life applications, projects, and the use of technology (where appropriate). It is widely acknowledged that the main goal of calculus instruction is for the student to understand the basic ideas. This text aims to support such a goal while motivating students through the use of real-world applications, building the essential mathematical reasoning skills, and helping them develop an appreciation and enthusiasm for calculus.

James Stewart received the M.S. degree from Stanford University and the Ph.D. from the University of Toronto. After two years as a postdoctoral fellow at the University of London, he became Professor of Mathematics at McMaster University. His research has been in harmonic analysis and functional analysis. Stewart’s books include a series of high school textbooks as well as a best-selling series of calculus textbooks. He is also co-author, with Lothar Redlin and Saleem Watson, of a series of college algebra and precalculus textbooks. Translations of his books include those in Spanish, Portuguese, French, Italian, Korean, Chinese, Greek, and Indonesian.

A talented violinst, Stewart was concertmaster of the McMaster Symphony Orchestra for many years and played professionally in the Hamilton Philharmonic Orchestra. Having explored connections between music and mathematics, Stewart has given more than 20 talks worldwide on Mathematics and Music and is planning to write a book that attempts to explain why mathematicians tend to be musical.

Stewart was named a Fellow of the Fields Institute in 2002 and was awarded an honorary D.Sc. in 2003 by McMaster University. The library of the Fields Institute is named after him. The James Stewart Mathematics Centre was opened in October, 2003, at McMaster University.

5.0 out of 5 stars Un libro muy detallado

Los libros de Stewart son excelentes para autoestudio ya que son muy detallados en la teoría y ejercicios. Durante mi carrera fue de gran ayuda,pero lo presté y no regresó, así que deseaba tener uno de referencia.

5.0 out of 5 stars Second review now that I have learned some Calculus
Reviewed in the United States on 23 January 2014
Verified Purchase
Originally I thought this was one of the worst introductory Calculus texts ever written and this was after using Stewart's Precalculus
text which I thought was very well written and accessible to the target audience. I have now worked my way up to Differential Equations and Linear Algebra all totally on my own - no professors, classmates, lectures, etc. I mention this because my progress
has only to do with me and my textbook(s).
Most of the criticisms that I have of the textbooks I have seen still stand - they are poorly written for the target audience. However,
now that I have a more advanced perspective I can see that a lot of the published criticisms are the sour grapes resulting from
poor precalculus preparation, low motivation to study mathematics, poor writing and teaching, etc.
Having my experience let me now tell you how to learn Calculus:
1) Get real good at Algebra and Precalculus.
2) Use textbooks by Stewart, Larson and Edwards, Michael Sullivan, Thomas and Finney,
3) Do problems until your eyes are falling out of your head.
4) Write extensive notes and then ask yourself could someone learn Calculus with only these notes. If the answer is no throw them
away and rewrite them.
5) Use the Internet - you cannot imagine how many websites there are for all mathematics at any leve.
Finally, Dr.Stewart I apologize for the very badly inaccurate review I gave your book - it is not the easiest book for a beginner in
Calculus but it is accessible and good good preparation for DE's and Linear Algebra.

Excellent ouvrage que j'ai acheté pour ma fille qui entame un master en mathématiques. Un "must" que j'ai vu trôner dans bien des bibliothèques de collègues ingénieurs.

5.0 out of 5 stars A Complete Calculus Book for $25!
Reviewed in the United States on 11 May 2015
Verified Purchase
I was looking for a good Calculus book to add to my library and noticed this one on Amazon for only $25 so I purchased it.

This book covers a three semester college Calculus sequence for math and science majors. The prerequisites for this book are 4 years of high school mathematic including Algebra 1, Geometry, Algebra 2, and College Algebra/Trigonometry. Good grades in high school math and thorough understanding of algebra, geometry, and trigonometry are essential in one's success in completing and understanding Calculus. The reason I mention this is because Calculus is a much more difficult subject, the learning is steep, and you use everything you learned in high school math from that point on.

Stewart's book has a wealth of problems and examples covering the following topics: real numbers, inequalities, limits, functions, differentiation of algebraic and transcendental functions, the chain rule for differentiation, max/min problems, integration of (polynomial, exponential, trigonometric functions, techniques of integration), L'Hospital's rule, improper integrals, infinite series, parametrization of curves/surfaces, vectors, partial derivatives, multiple integrals, introduction to differential equations, and more. Answers to some of the exercises are provided in the back of the book.

It is uncommon to find a Calculus book this good for the low price. Good luck in your math endeavors!
