Single Variable Calculus

This advanced undergraduate textbook is based on a one-semester course on single variable calculus that the author has been teaching at San Diego State University for many years. The aim of this classroom-tested book is to deliver a rigorous discussion of the concepts and theorems that are dealt with informally in the first two semesters of a beginning calculus course. As such, students are expected to gain a deeper understanding of the fundamental concepts of calculus, such as limits (with an emphasis on ε-δ definitions), continuity (including an appreciation of the difference between mere pointwise and uniform continuity), the derivative (with rigorous proofs of various versions of L’Hôpital’s rule) and the Riemann integral (discussing improper integrals in-depth, including the comparison and Dirichlet tests). Success in this course is expected to prepare students for more advanced courses in real and complex analysis and this book will help to accomplish this. The first semester of advanced calculus can be followed by a rigorous course in multivariable calculus and an introductory real analysis course that treats the Lebesgue integral and metric spaces, with special emphasis on Banach and Hilbert spaces.

The book is a comprehensive yet compressed entry-level introduction on single variable calculus, focusing on the concepts and applications of limits, continuity, derivative, defi nite integral, series, sequences and approximations. Chapters are arranged to outline the essence of each topic and to address learning diffi culties, making it suitable for students and lecturers in mathematics, physics and engineering. Contents Prerequisites for calculus Limits and continuity The derivative Applications of the derivative The definite integral Techniques for integration and improper integrals Applications of the definite integral Infinite series, sequences, and approximations

First course calculus texts have traditionally been either “engineering/science-oriented” with too little rigor, or have thrown students in the deep end with a rigorous analysis text. The How and Why of One Variable Calculus closes this gap in providing a rigorous treatment that takes an original and valuable approach between calculus and analysis. Logically organized and also very clear and user-friendly, it covers 6 main topics; real numbers, sequences, continuity, differentiation, integration, and series. It is primarily concerned with developing an understanding of the tools of calculus. The author presents numerous examples and exercises that illustrate how the techniques of calculus have universal application. The How and Why of One Variable Calculus presents an excellent text for a first course in calculus for students in the mathematical sciences, statistics and analytics, as well as a text for a bridge course between single and multi-variable calculus as well as between single variable calculus and upper level theory courses for math majors.

Stewart's SINGLE VARIABLE CALCULUS WITH VECTOR FUNCTIONS has the mathematical precision, accuracy, clarity of exposition and outstanding examples and problem sets that characterized all of James Stewart�s texts. In this new text, Stewart focuses on problem solving, using the pedagogical system that has worked so well for students in a wide variety of academic settings throughout the world.

Appropriate for the traditional 3-term college calculus course, Calculus: Early Transcendentals, Fourth Edition provides the student-friendly presentation and robust examples and problem sets for which Dennis Zill is known. This outstanding revision incorporates all of the exceptional learning tools that have made Zill's texts a resounding success. He carefully blends the theory and application of important concepts while offering modern applications and problem-solving skills.

Calculus: Single Variable, 12th Edition, offers students a rigorous and intuitive treatment of single variable calculus, including the differentiation and integration of one variable. Using the Rule of Four, the authors present mathematical concepts from verbal, algebraic, visual, and numerical points of view. The book includes numerous exercises, applications, and examples that help readers learn and retain the concepts discussed within, and discusses polynomials, rational functions, exponentials, logarithms, and trigonometric functions late in the text.

This book combines traditional mainstream calculus with the most flexible approach to new ideas and calculator/computer technology. It contains superb problem sets and a fresh conceptual emphasis flavored by new technological possibilities. The Calculus II portion now has a new focus on differential equations. Chapter topics include functions, graphs, and models; a prelude to calculus; the derivative; additional applications of the derivative; the integral; applications of the integral; calculus of transcendental functions; techniques of integration; differential equations; polar coordinates and parametric curves; and infinite series.

Jim Stewart's Single Variable Calculus has become the most widely adopted text for the first segment of the calculus course. Why? Stewart writes with integrity and precision, reaching out to students with a clarity and a love for the subject matter that is apparent on every page. From a mathematical standpoint, the text is deemed impeccable; from a pedagogical standpoint, insightful; from an accuracy standpoint, remarkable. On every page of his text, Stewart's genuine understanding of both calculus and calculus students is apparent. A phenomenon of the Stewart success is the text's use in such a wide variety of colleges and universities throughout the world. How does Stewart reach students at every level so effectively? Just as he teaches to every student in his classes from the most unprepared to the most mathematically gifted, Stewart write to this range of students--adding the explanations that make ideas come alive as well as the problems that challenge.

The 10th edition of Calculus Single Variable continues to bring together the best of both new and traditional curricula in an effort to meet the needs of even more instructors teaching calculus. The author team's extensive experience teaching from both traditional and innovative books and their expertise in developing innovative problems put them in an unique position to make this new curriculum meaningful for those going into mathematics and those going into the sciences and engineering. This new text exhibits the same strengths from earlier editions including an emphasis on modeling and a flexible approach to technology.

Michael Sullivan and Kathleen Miranda have written a contemporary calculus textbook that instructors will respect and students can use. Consistent in its use of language and notation, Sullivan/Miranda’s Calculus offers clear and precise mathematics at an appropriate level of rigor. The authors help students learn calculus conceptually, while also emphasizing computational and problem-solving skills. The book contains a wide array of problems including engaging challenge problems and applied exercises that model the physical sciences, life sciences, economics, and other disciplines. Algebra-weak students will benefit from marginal annotations that help strengthen algebraic understanding, the many references to review material, and extensive practice exercises. Strong media offerings include interactive figures and online homework. Sullivan/Miranda’s Calculus has been built with today’s instructors and students in mind.

Known for accuracy, precision, and rigor, Soo Tan now brings those same qualities to the Calculus course. With his clear, concise writing style, and use of relevant, real world examples, Tan introduces abstract mathematical concepts with his intuitive approach that captures student interest without compromising mathematical rigor. In keeping with this emphasis on conceptual understanding, each exercise set begins with concept questions and each end-of-chapter review section includes fill-in-the-blank questions which help students master the definitions and theorems in each chapter. Additionally, many questions asking for the interpretation of graphical, numerical, and algebraic results are included among both the examples and the exercise sets.
