This is a serious Calculus textbook

This is a serious Calculus textbook. If you really need to learn Calculus and have time to apply to the task, this is a great book. You will learn everything you need to know about Calculus (Differential Calculus, Integral Calculus, etc.).

Of course, this is a big heavy book. The newest editions are quite expensive. The slightly older editions are cheap. Since Calculus hasn't changed that much over time, the older editions are fine.

Excellent textbook.

This is an excellent textbook as a classroom text or for self-study. I
have read other reviews where the reviewer complains about too much theory. This is nonsense. If you only want formulas then take only that
from the book. If you want more it is there. This book is an excellent
precursor to analysis and differential equations. The authors don't baby
the reader but you better come well versed in precalculus. Please don't
try to study calculus if you can't do inequalities, logs, etc. and then
blame the author and your instructors for your failures.

Pretty good

Reviewed in the United States on 11 November 2008

This is a very decent calculus book.

One of my favorite features is the complete lack of stock photos -- instead, they decided to fill the space with USEFUL information, and diagrams related to the topic being discussed (no baseball players and businessmen...).

The book has a fairly good balance of theory and applications, and does a good job at using elegant but INSTRUCTIVE proofs.

It is a gentler introduction that something like Apostol or Spivak -- less theory ... which depending on what you plan to use it for can be a good or bad thing. I personally used it before trying to tackle Apostol's book, and it made reading the latter much easier.

All in all, I'd recommend this book over most other calculus books geared towards this audience.
