"The new edition exhibits the same strengths from earlier editions including the Rule of Four, an emphasis on modeling, exposition that students can read and understand and a flexible approach to technology. The conceptual and modeling problems, praised for their creativity and variety, continue to motivate and challenge students. "
"Text includes study guide and free access to an online algebra refresher tutorial. Also includes a new chapter on geometric series. Hole-punched loose leaf format."

"Textbook: From the Calculus Consortium based at Harvard University, this comprehensible book prepares readers for the study of calculus, presenting families of functions as models for change. These materials stress conceptual understanding and multiple ways of representing mathematical ideas. The focus throughout is on those topics that are essential to the study of calculus and these topics are treated in depth. (Textbook ISBN: 0471 ..."

"Deborah Hughes-Hallett, Andrew M. Gleason, William G. McCallum ... There are
many situations where you may not be able to find an exact solution to a problem,
but can use a calculator or computer to get a reasonable approximation. An
answer obtained this way is usually just as useful ... For the first time, I was able
to see how everything works together That was a student at the University of
Arizona who took calculus in Fall 1990 ..."
"Since 1992, when we developed the first edition of Calculus, we have helped widen the arry of options available to instructors teaching calculus. Our first edition struck a new balance between concepts, modeling, and skills to enable instructors to address all aspects of student learning...."
"The Third Edition of CALCULUS reflects the strong consensus within the mathematics community for a new balance between the contemporary ideas of the original editions of this book and ideas and topics from earlier calculus books. Building on previous work, this Third Edition has the same philosophy as earlier editions but represents a new balance of topics. CALCULUS 3/e brings together the best of both new and traditional curricula in a ..."
