Customer Reviews — [1] Rating: 5 Date: 2010-06-25 Summary: Calculus Book Review ... The textbook arrived very quickly and was in great condition!It is just like brand-new. I am so happy, and grateful to the seller. Thank you so much! ...more
[2] Rating: 5 Date: 2010-05-01 Summary: Larson/Edwards Calculus ... I was looking for a good refresher on Calculus and among my collection of books, I had another Larson Title on pre-calculus which was found to be a very good read. My older Calculus book by Schenk is less fluid and to my delight, this book, "Calculus" by Larson and Edwards, like the "PreCalculus with Limits" by Larson and Hostetler, is easily assimilated. The book is well sectioned and the explanatory text is clear, building naturally upon previous material and backed by a good cadre of examples. This book works with ...more
[3] Rating: 4 Date: 2010-03-30 Summary: A good book for undergraduate Calculus. ... Calculus by Larson,Hostetler, Edwards book was the series of books I used in my undergraduate Calc 1-3 classes. Quick Summary: Pros: Good number of exercises, *some* good examples, lots of illustrations, lots of good guidelines and formula sheets. Cons: Some not-so-great examples, some examples *should* add more algebra steps, 3 editions in 7 years necessary, cost of book-per-class versus 3-set volume is absurd. Full Review: All in all I think this book was pretty good through the year and a half run I had for calculus ...more
[4] Rating: 5 Date: 2010-03-07 Summary: INNOVATIVE AT THE INTERMEDIATE LEVEL ... This review is done from the perspective of one who is either learning or teaching Calculus II and Calculus III. In this volume, Larson and Edwards have laid out elaborate examples in terms of how applications of the integral are carried out. Accompanied with WebAssign, the text information provides three-dimensional modeling such as the highly-enhanced computer graphics that enable one to see how space is occupied not just in the Cartesian (x-y) plane but also the surfaces that require x-y-z coordinates as well as ...more

Essential Calculus: Early Transcendentals
Customer Reviews — [1] Rating: 5 Date: 2010-06-04 Summary: Calc. book a great deal ... Seller had a great description. Item arrived as described in a very timely manner. Bundling the SSM with the text was a great thing and it's been really helpful for me! ...more
[2] Rating: 4 Date: 2009-09-26 Summary: Great examples, useful reference sheets ... This book was required for my Calculus II course, and would also be used for Calc I (if I had taken it), as well as Calc III. So far, around 1/3 of the way through the semester, I have found the book to be very helpful. Whenever I had questions about some of the material, I found it was more useful to refer to the book, than my notes. There are 5 tear out reference sheets found in the front/back, which are great for referring back to. Unfortunately, since they are tear-out, this means that if you want them you'll have ...more
[3] Rating: 4 Date: 2009-08-07 Summary: Math ... Well, I'm not sure how to rate this other than the teacher said we had to get it. It was in grate condition when I got it. I took Cal 1 and that is it. ...more
[4] Rating: 4 Date: 2009-06-26 Summary: Fantastic book, if used correctly. ... I debated for quite a while about whether this was a 4 or 5 star book, in reality it's probably about 4.5 I used this book for Calculus 1, 2, and 3. THE GOOD: Almost no errata -- This book was amazingly consistent, very high quality here, almost no errors in it. Comprehensive -- This book did a very good job of being thorough about the topics it covered. Concise -- Even though it was thorough, it wasn't extremely long, the sections were split small enough that it was fairly easy to get through. No faith required -- ...more

The Calculus Direct: An intuitively Obvious Approach to a Basic Understanding of the Calculus for the Casual Observer (Volume 1)
Customer Reviews — [1] Rating: 5 Date: 2010-07-20 Summary: Awesome book! ... Although I am only about 10% into this book it seems great. I have not had the same experience that the other poster had with the bad graphics on kindle. I have been looking for a single book for a long time that will start with algebra and end up with calculus. I think that I have found it with this one! ...more
[2] Rating: 4 Date: 2010-05-02 Summary: Good, but needs to be proofread ... This book is very ambitious, and I applaud the author for his hard work. My only gripe with the book is the dodgy grammar and imprecise or incorrect wording (for example, "a part of" and "apart of" have exactly opposite meanings). Get someone to proofread it for you, and you'll have a top notch book! ...more
[3] Rating: 5 Date: 2009-12-03 Summary: Charge More!!! ... Wow, finally an easy to understand approach at Calculus. A wealth of knowledge for such a small price, well worth a much higher price. Knowledge like this is priceless! I would have paid $100.00 for this book, you must charge much more for this wonderful tool. Best of luck to all math junkies! ...more
[4] Rating: 5 Date: 2009-11-15 Summary: great book ... This book was completly different from the other math books I've seen. I have been out of school for a while and was never very good with mathematics to begin with. So going back to math class was very worrisome. This book began with addition and then gave a really good algebra section and then continued through everything I needed to get to calculus in an easy way. It really developed everything I needed to know without having to look at other books. I even understood the applications section (Haha, I can do rocket ...more
Editorial Reviews — ... Product Description | This book takes no prior knowledge of mathematics for granted as it takes the student slowly and surely from addition all the way to a basic understanding of the calculus in the least painful and most efficient path possible. The calculus is not a hard subject, and this book proves this through an easy to read, obvious approach spanning only 100 pages. This book is written with the following type of student in mind; the non-traditional student returning to college after a long break, a...more
