Customer Reviews — [1] Rating: 4 Date: 2010-07-25 Summary: A calculus student's opinion ... Admittedly, I've never used another calculus textbook, but I generally found this one to be good enough that I could learn from it. I have read the chapters before and after class and generally found the book to helpful in my understanding of the subject material. Having said that, I like math and have a very strong base in algebra, so the examples never really left me wondering (as so many people have complained about). It's not magic he's using to solve problems, it's algebra. Stewart skips steps in his example problems ...more
[2] Rating: 5 Date: 2010-05-22 Summary: The best for beginner ... I went over Larson twice and Stewart once as a part of my Calculus I II III study. So here is how I feel the difference between Larson 8th edition and Stewart 6th edition. Stewart text is better than Larson, especially in multivariable calculus section. I would say it is 50% better. Because the graphics are much better and clear. The multivariable figures in Larson rumble together and take quite awhile to decode. Moreover, Stewart also explain the concepts behind the multivariable better. Although it is not very rigorous, ...more

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

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.

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

Student Solutions Manual for Stewart's Multivariable Calculus, 6th Edition
Customer Reviews — [1] Rating: 4 Date: 2009-09-09 Summary: great tool when the tutor's office is closed ... the book is great - it covers chapters 10 through 17, it has the solutions for all the odd questions (student manuals never give odds and evens). and the solutions are written in a step by step progression that helps cement the correct way to solve the problems. i used the single variable solutions manual for Calc II, and it helped me understand the course enough to finally pass it (with an A), and now that i purchased this manual for calc III I've no doubt i'll pull through again. ...more
